Life and Death

One of my life obsessions and fears is death. It may be why I work in birth and have a desire to do hospice work at some point in my life.

The collection of photographs is by German photographer Walter Schels, 72 Faces of Life and Death is a beautiful window into a part of our existence that most choose not to think about. There is a link at the end of this article where you can view some portraits from the collection. What a fascinating project.
