Macro of a beautifully carved headstone in the cemetery at Christ Church, St. Simons Island, Georgia. I liked the play of light and shadow against the carved angel.

Oh la la - love the lighting, this is one of those shots I'd love to edit into a painting.
Sorry Kat - nothing against your photography - it's a wonderful shot, love it!

I'm guessing you took this in Savannah? Looking forward to your trip reportt, because I'd like to drag Richard there.

No offense taken. This was taken on St. Simon's Island about an hour south of Savannah.
