[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An extract of a sculpture in the cemetary of Schönenwerd, a small village of Solothurn.
I decided to go for a walk there after having heard that the father of a friend died. We were at his funeral a month ago, and (for a born Muslim like me)it was such an impressive funeral that I wanted to visit this (Christian) cemetary again...which I did on April 9.

There were a lot of old, beautiful sculptures, everyone demonstrating the youth: the most beautiful time of life. And near the young girls`/angels` sculptures were all gravestones, remembering the visitor on death and the passing time.

I think the artist who made this scupture tried to unite two totally different things: youth and eternity .
That`s what you can see on this photo: a young (female) hand touching an immortal stone.
I hope you like the scene...

Hi Ferhat,
An impressive composition. It's very well framed. You have achieved an astonishing effect to have the upper part of the statue cropped away.

Thanks,
Christian

Dear Ferhat
Very impressive detailed picture about a cemetary. The green leafs gives a vivid element to the cold stone. Well done. My best regards. ihsan

Hallo Ferhat,

eine schöne Szene: der leicht verwitterte Stein der Statue - und dazu die frischen grünen Blätter. Auch das Spiel von Licht und Schatten gefällt mir gut!

Ich kann dich wirklich verstehen, auch mir gefallen die alten Gräber sehr. Und gerade für dich als Moslem ... ich finde auch islamische Friedhöfe sehr interessent, sie haben einen eigenen Reiz.
