206/366 - July 24, 2012 - Stairway to Heaven

I just missed the train north and wound up on the south train today instead. I had plans for the north and was initially at a loss when I found myself going the other direction. However, I was drawn to Union Cemetery. The last time I explored these grounds with my camera was almost one year ago, with Kent, a former member of my photo group. Kent and I had such a great time joking and exploring together. He was so full of warmth and was excitedly looking forward to a birthday surprise from his wife. It was the first time I had met Kent and was looking forward to shooting with him in the future. Unfortunately, Kent took his own life before I had the chance to meet him again. Even though it was a few hours on one day, Kent touched me and being back at the Union cemetery made me feel like I was stopping by and saying hi to an old friend.
