I wanted to post this myself but found someone had already put it in the image base. It is sad, and beautiful. What a heart and talent to conceive and produce such art.
Thought it might be nice to put on a thread since not everyone goes to the image area.

Creator of East End ice sculpture warming hearts of Americans and learning about pain of Sept. 11
There is a price to helping to heal the world's pain.
You relive that pain when, in thanking you, people tell you stories of exactly what losses you've helped them overcome.
That's especially true if, like Darlene Racicot who created an ice sculpture of an angel comforting an exhausted New York firefighter holding the American flag post Sept. 11, you have the imagination and compassion to put yourself in their shoes.
"We were only imagining what their pain was like before," Racicot said Monday.
"Now we've heard from the families, ordinary people like us, who were left behind. There's a lot of pain and I'm certainly feeling it now."
After receiving hundreds of e-mails from people around the world, including many touched directly by the tragedy, Racicot and her husband Rick know in detail the dimensions of the loss she tried to console, through her choice of sculpture for the recent South Porcupine-Porcupine Winter Carnival.

FLKook... thanks for posting that image here  ... I don't always visit the image gallery and it would have been a shame to miss seeing such a beautiful and touching work of art. |

The ice sculpture photo was originally
posted by KnewEyes outside of the
data base, in fact you commented on it.

I agree it is a touching photo and deserves it's own thread.
btw - sorry about the double post.

Hey, I knew I'd seen it somewhere, she says with a blush. |
