An eye-catching headstone of granite and stained glass in the Lake Road Cemetery near Consort, Alberta.
The stained glass goose and cat tails appear unusually bright and vibrant on the polished black granite. This effect is attained by backing the glass with a silver mirrored finish and really brings the image to life.
As an added bonus the reflection of the snow on the dark granite creates an optical illusion...the foreground reflection blends with the snow behind the marker to become one unified image. Visual delights.

Beautiful! I've never seen anything quite like this.
ReplyDeleteThese are rare but I have seen a few in my travels...none quite as nice as this one though.
