16 Beautiful Creative Angel Photos
Angel foot Photo by Denny Lyon @ flickr
From Denny: One of my favorite digital playgrounds is the Flickr database. Since Flickr instituted the Galleries feature where you can go and pull any photo and place up to 18 photos in that gallery, I've been having a lot of fun! There are over 5,000 favorites bookmarked over the years in my Flickr collection and this is a great way to focus it.
As I was pulling this post together I was struck by how many poems I've written in regard to angels: dreams, visions, observations in life, personal experiences you name it - so I included links to those writes.
You are welcome to use my personal angel photos here. Please include a link back to the flickr page with "Denny Lyon" as attribution instead of "image source" - thanks! You can also use these other photos here with the same kind of link and attribution. Creative Commons is a pretty sweet deal when you are an online writer and need some photos for your posts or online article! Thank you to all the other flickr photographers who have been generous enough to place some of their photos in the Creative Commons area.

Weary Angel Photo by GettysGirl @ flickr
From the photographer:
With all that is going on in the world . . . war, economic woes, pandemic threats, homelessness, poverty, abuse against animals and mankind . . . I can imagine that the angels watching over us are growing weary.

an angel is nobody in particular...
Thorns and stings
And those such things
Just make stronger
