The typical Flickr image of a photoshopped woman with angel wings is a visual cliche--yes, it embodies the aspiration to rise above their given physical nature, but the typical image is so gauzy and idealized that when you've seen about a thousand of 'em it looks mundane and routine.

Not the one below, which I ran across on a site to which I have become addicted: the design image blog FFFFOUND!  The raw naturalism of this image is true to our innate schizoid fusion of flesh and transcendence.
