To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and common sense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams.

Nice one, Frozentime. :)

Did you seriously take that photo recently, or are you just kidding? I haven't turned the heat on yet, but I was certainly tempted to today. :cold:

I took this one at Highland Park last year but didn't see the cross in the clouds until I was processing photos earlier this year.

When my 16-yr.-old niece was in town this summer, I took her to Mt. Hope Cemetery (she's not Goth but is sort of into macabre things right now).
