Guardians of the past…
This morning I pointed my vehicle towards Minneapolis. My goal was to photograph statues in a couple of cemeteries. As I drove through the quiet and cold gates I was captured by the elegance and thoughtful detail each sculpture possessed. I pondered for a moment what these statues meant. For me the words that came to my mind were; “Guardians of the past”. These chiseled creations born from the hands of master sculptors weather the seasons and represent memories of a loved one no longer alive. Figures both strong in substance and gentle in represented demeanor, guard memories of the past and names of the future.
