Thanks for your comments, Albert. I, too, like cemetaries for the peace and stillness of them.
I like your image very much, it is clean and simple, and the bit of red in it is lovely.
Thanks again for commenting, my friend....

Hi Christine,
Very nice shot ! Like the tones and composition,
The fact that there's no bright lightfall creates a bit a feeling of loneliness, that fits well to the view.
Mayybe this sounds a bit morbide, but I like cemetries. The special and peaceful atmosphere is really nice. Depending on season and weather these places can feel great and fill you of respect or just let you feel the loneliness.
I added a shot of last year made during a short vacation on the island of Texel on the north coast of Holland. It's a war cemetry.
Warm greetz dear friend,
Albert Jacobs:)

Thanks, Nessa- Still Life :) (can we create "Still Death"?) yes that works, and not as morbid as my first choice "Under Your Feet" ;))
I'm a bit twisted. I love cemetaries...
Take care!

Yes, I was surprised. At the other Veteran's Cematary in Colma, there was a special section for the wives. I think that this cemetary is much older, so they don't have very much space. In fact, I don't think they are doing new burials here. Perhaps that is why they are sharing headstones. I really don't know. I'll look into it. Thanks for looking, Jan.
