Three final squares before I move on to regular 6x4s...








Cologne, Germany, 2005

On the one hand, I wish the angel in the last two pictures hadn't been so dirty, as she would have looked much more elegant without years' worth of dust clinging to her. On the other hand, I doubt there'd have been much to photograph if she'd been clean, as her lines weren't defined clearly enough to stand out much in an all-white picture. Either way, it was a fairly unique relief; I didn't see anything else like it in the whole cemetery, which, as you know (or should know if you really read this journal :-)), contains over twenty thousand graves.

As for the first picture, I just love it. I'm not quite sure why (it's awfully c***, don't you think?), but I do.
