Signs of Life is a photographic essay exploring the cycles of life through signs that are spelled out or symbolic. We all take different paths throughout are lives. The images and signs are everywhere, and it’s up to us to notice when we reach them.
For Where’s My Backpack Travel theme: Signs photo challenge, I’m offering signs as stops along the way on the journey of life.
