  2. The shadows fall upon a cemetery which might match the mood of the mourners - and we hope that the strong sun at least adds comfort and strength to all present...

  3. Looks like many large grave sites closely packed. I imagine that there are some pioneers represented here.

  4. Very pretty and such wonderful details and textures too. There are some cemeteries I would like to shoot, but would prefer it not to be 90 with 70% humidity or more.

  6. Interesting to be photographing at a cemetery, definitely not in a Chinese cemetery.

  9. Is there a reason everyone has above ground crypts? Or was it just the fashion then? Interesting spot for sure.

    1. Most did back then and most still do in Australia today although nowhere near as elaborate as these.

  10. Who is buried in the impressive tomb? Quite a statement being made there!
