Life before death is a striking installment of photos taken of people before and after their deaths. It is a hauntingly beautiful collection with accounts from each of the subjects; their thoughts, ideals and regrets, all recorded before their time came.
When reading through the accounts, a few remarks stood out. I was struck by how at peace some of them were with death. How some were asking for more time. How some felt that their work was incomplete. And how some lived a safe life free of vice and still fell into the indiscriminating trap of sickness especially cancer.
Here's a very poignant collection and interesting read by German photographer Walter Schels.
