German photographers Walter Schels and Beate Lakotta have a show of their extraordinary before-and-after-death photos opening on April 9 at the Wellcome Trust in London. The photos are marvellous and wrenching, the difference between flesh animated and the empty vessel gigantic and unmistakable, even when the before-death shot is of someone terribly ill. Life’s marvellous and inexplicable. 11 cases total…read the explanations! :sadwavey:

Fairly morbid, but interesting to hear their thoughts on death.
