This photo was taken in the oldest cemetery in New Orleans, St. Louis Cemetery. The Angels face was carved to replicate the deceased childs features, forever etched in memory, and time.

Very nice however a different angle would have shown the dates better and I think this is the point of this photo.
I know what you mean, but I hadn't planned on submitting for this challenge. When I got home from New Orleans, saw the challenge, remembered the photo that I took and submitted it. The angle cropped out some of the vandalism that had been done to the statue as well...
That cloud right over the angels head really detracts from this photo. If you're trying to go for a halo effect with that, it doesn't really work for me. The shape of the cloud doesn't say 'halo'.
Wasn't going for the halo, just happen to be taking a photo and then found out what the challenge was when I got home, the photo fit the time frame guidelines and I thought that I would submit it. Sorry it doesn't work for ya.- Shelia
