The Taos Pueblo people honor their dead inthis cemetary. It was a beautiful place. One Indian man asked us for our "authorizations" to take pictures. We had them. These were our last shots on the pueblo.
The main gate and sign for the cemetary.
I wasn't even trying to frame up the stone in the middle there, and the way the trees are blocked off too, turned out well.
With a full monn out i had to wait till 2 in the morning to go out and get this shot with the moon in the place i wanted it to be. It turned out well but it was an erie feeling being out there with absolutely no noise and no-one around.
we then visited a nifty muslim cemetary that looked like it was buddhist. that's cause they stole the site from some buddhists a long time ago, in order to bury their sultans. anyway, you couldn't take pictures in the actual cemetary, but here's the entrance.
This is the cemetary in Ferndale, CA. It's built on the side of a fairly steep hill. Some of the headstones we saw were dated mid to early 1800's.
This is an abandoned cemetary deep in the woods down an abandoned logging road. I happened on this while looking for old kaoline mines for fossils. I just happened to stop to take a leak and barely caught an upraised hand in the distance an
d just a hint of a wrought iron fence. This has the grave of Hayden Hughes consort. The writing on the consorts grave stoicly proclaimes that "here lie the remains" and the word consort is plainly visible. What is unusual is that the more ornate grave has a mariners them and religious symbols such as a cross are noticeably absent. The wrought iren posts have somewhat of a cross but given the lack of markings on the tombstones I'm thinking that this was not purposely ordered but rather what was readily available at the time. This is a very peculiar place and it has been calling me for some time to come capture the imagery of this place.
