Connecting



Elizabeth MacQueen's beautiful sculpture,Four Spirits, is a tribute to the four young girls whose lives were cut short when the 16th Avenue Baptist Church was bombed in 1963. MacQueen's piece was installed at Kelly Ingram Park to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the bombing. I have photographed it many times. Often I find it becomes a sacred space for those seeing it for the first time.

Winged Victory


This stainless steel sculpture by Birmingham artist Brad Morton, stands outside The Financial Center on 20th Street North in downtown Birmingham.  Installed in 1999, it's a tribute to Fred Sington by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
