I love this shot. Old tombstones are such an interesting view into our heritage and the times. Well done.
 
thank you kindly david, shawn, k, and guillaume.

i wish i had gotten more of the words on the shot. at the time i thought i had enough but now i see differently.

david, there is another grave next to this, from the same family, with a similar eulogy..."an artist by profession and a poet in nature, bright and gentle..."
i would love to have known these to men!
