Sacred Sunset

image is available for purchase

In between two small towns in the Colorado mountains, there is a tiny family graveyard that dates from the time settlers moved into the western regions of North America. They found it well to mark the site with a rugged cross made from the materials of the day: horse harnesses and barbed wire. This image catches the cross at dusk, watched over by moon, a mountain, and a bright star.

Sacred Sunset
The image is of a sunset scene with a purple and pink sky, a cross prominent in the foreground, the moon and a star to the upper right and a shadowed mountain to the left. The cross is rugged, with a loop of barbed wire around it.© Randy Heffner inspect image detail »
