Broken Elvis
Manzanar National Monument, California February 2007


I photographed this marker on my last trip. (http://www.pbase.com/mityam/image/73618484) This time members of our group found that this broken Elvis had been placed at the grave. The metaphor of broken dreams was too much for me to not include another image of this stone. Each time we visit a place, it is another place.

Your Elvis is reduced to baby-like size here. It works well with the context and setting.
