Death Angels : A Photographic Essay - Index Page Welcome to Death Angels : A Photographic Essay Here you will find photographs of cemetery angels, watchers and guardians which grace the final resting places of many who have gone before us. Rather than finding them morbid or macabre, I find them to be both comforting and beautiful. It is a disappearing art form and one that deserves to be protected and cherished as part of our heritage. The beauty of the gardens of stone that once graced cemeteries, have been replaced by lawns which more resemble golf courses than places of honor. Surely a natural landscape is pleasing to everyone's eye, but it says nothing of the character of the place. Sadly the natural landscapes of the modern cemetery are not made for their beauty, but for their ease of maintenance. It's cheaper to mow over rather than around. Even wreaths, flowers, trinkets and memento's left to honor the dead are thrown away with no respect for the sentimentality behind the act.
