To Die is Gain

(Click on the photos for the larger size:)






I took these photos a number of months ago, but hadn't done any processing until this week. While I loved the color shots, the B&W were more poignant.  I title this series To Die is Gain, based on the writings of the Apostle Paul who wrote in Philippians 1:21 that "to live is Christ and to die is gain."  These photographs are an attempt at depicting the beauty of being united with Christ through death (Romans 6) and the truth that to die is gain.
