Your Photos of Angels

Angels are still everywhere, and we have the pictures to prove it.  Beliefnet has featured several versions of this photo gallery, each with a diverse collection of angel pictures snapped and submitted by our readers.  The most common angel sighting is in the shape of clouds, but sometimes surprising ones also appear, like a piercing light in Italy or an atmospheric yellow aura at a wake.

See the unforgettable angel photos and read the stories about them.
