We all have angels (guardian angels) watching over us regardless if we believe in them or not

Thank you. I started trying to shoot cemetery statues such as this from a vantage point that put me more directly in the figure's sight line - I think it has made for some very dynamic compositions.

Thank you so much. Lately I've been trying to photograph many of these statues from a perspective that seems to put myself directly in the sculpture's line of site. Sometimes powerful, sometimes creepy (especially when I have to lay on a grave to get the shot).

Very cool,the tilt really lends a sense of drama.

I've actually just recently shot a gigabytes worth of very similar shots (great minds) so hopefully I've captured as much drama as you have here

Thanks! It was a good day - the clouds were interesting, the light was good, and the subject matter powerful. All I had to do was push a button.

Thanks so much! I loved the pose and wingspan on this particular statuary. And the sky was perfect - a particularly good shoot day.
