Kevin ~ my ex-wife's husband • click to embiggenCan you picture life and ignore picturing death?

To be perfectly clear about what I mean by "death", I don't mean "horrific" death by war, disaster, atrocity, or any other form of "horrific" death, all of which have been pictured on a fairly regular basis ever since the inception of photography - I mean just plain old everyday "ordinary" death.

BTW & FYI, the caricature in the picture above is by long-time friend and Landscapist commenter Jimmi Nuffin.
