Rookwood, cemetery

 Wild flowers grow amongst the graves in the old Anglican section of Rookwood Necropolis, in the western suburb of Rookwood.

    When my in laws passed away in Sydney, each funeral was held in Rookwood. I found it more peaceful and attractive than the equivalent in Springvale.

    Looks like most cemeteries in the UK, left to grow for the insects. Nice shot
