I was at a friend's funeral. We never actually met in person, but we worked together a lot. Only now have I met his wonderful family and I regret that I didn't make the effort to meet him in person.
This is a photo from the Church of St. Thomas the Apostle in Warsaw. I don't like new churches because their architecture is very bizarre. But this church is an exception, it's very nice and I'll come back one day. The station of the cross caught my attention. All made in the same style, very sparingly and stimulating the imagination.
I have been interested in photography all my life and remember quite well developing my first black and white films myself... My favorite subjects are...
An unusual but beautiful statue. Remember your friendship and don’t dwell on what didn’t happen. I imagine the family were very pleased that you were there.
I sense a great deal of love and devotion in this piece- it's very powerful. I know what you mean about the modern churches but this piece is timeless. I also agree with Lesley- sometimes we don't see friends in person but they are still dear to us. I'm sure the family appreciated your presence as they remembered their loved one.
