Walker Evans

the image above shows a graveyard with a backdrop of a mining town in Pennsylvania, however i personally see the difference between life and death in this image. the photo shows that death is always there but you can still live along side that reality. Walker Evans did an amazing job at portraying that in this landscape photo.This image can be considered art because of the mood it is trying to express. it tells us that no matter what or how good are life is death is always going to be waiting, but that is ok because we can still live happy with it there.
