This is great. I love angels, hmm, why not statues from them. When photographing churches, I always visit on graveyards also. You did found very lovely angel.

Beautiful, such vivid greens! For some reason the statue makes me think of selflessness, like she is begging for the healing of the world around her, and the green is showing her prayers are being answered.

If this isn’t hope, nothing is. 🙂 What a beautiful shot for a beautiful thought.

Before I read the caption, I thought to myself, “Hey that looks like something from Ireland or England.” Lol! 😀 There are always amazing stone statues in the middle of bright, bright green. I love the contrast.

  She looks as though she could fly away at any moment – she’s just folding her wings for a bit of rest.

  Thanks, Nanci! English village churchyards have the most remarkable statues.
