Beginnings and endings, Columbus Cemetery, Havana, Cuba, 2012

The symbols of life and death can always be found juxtaposed within cemeteries. I stress such a comparison here by photographing a tomb featuring a statue of an idealized woman, gathered within a layering of fresh green vegetation in the foreground. I kept moving my vantage point to find an open spot among the leaves in which to place both the cross and the statue.
