On Wednesday of this week, I made some time to sneak away after work to find a few places to take some photos. I decided to stop by a small Catholic cemetery that I pass by often when I’m coming home from work. This was the first opportunity I’ve had to take colorful spring photos with my new camera. Having colors to play with is a whole new experience. On this Good Friday, and especially for those of you who celebrate Easter, I hope you enjoy the powerful monument that depicts the crucifixion of Jesus. It clearly caught my attention.
For more of my photography, including cemetery photos like these, please visit my Flickr page.

The blood from the crown of thorns is an interesting touch. I wonder if the creator of the monument did that, or if it was added later.

I wondered the very same thing. I’m not even sure of the age of this monument.
