Fourth Place
Forever Watchful
by MFC

This is the weathered stone gaze of a man mournful of his wife's death.
The inscription includes a poem to his wife that ends with the words...
"...and so my sculpted gaze shall forever watch over thee."
The man was buried beside his wife in 1886.

Bev, I concur. This image personifies sadness. Great capture, MFC!

Wonderful...a beautifully captured work of art, presented masterfully. This one has such a strong emotional quality to it...the saddness is almost palpable, but the strength is there, also. The composition is just marvelous...I love this one! ~Nee

Even before reading your comment, Mike, I thought "such sad eyes". You've captured it perfectly. Bev

This is very moving. I like there's nothing extraneous, just the face. - Ro
