Portraits: Before and After Death

I don't know. It seems almost sacrilegious to post this following the car crash of a post below on bad tattoos. But, I don't want to wait a couple of days or weeks until it cycles off onto an older page. I'm posting it now, propriety be damned.

I ran across an amazing website: Lens Culture and the work of a photographer, Walter Schels.

Taken from Lens Culture:

"This exhibition features people whose lives are coming to an end. It explores the experiences, hopes and fears of the terminally ill. All of them agreed to be photographed shortly before and immediately after death."
