On Saturday morning I went looking for photo ops in the snow, and the Johnson Station Cemetary in Arlington was perfect. For starters, many of the gravestones date from the 1800s and early 1900s, so they are already dark and weathered. Add to that a thick blanket of snow, and the dark trees and stones created an amazing, natural black-and-white look.

From Saipan, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. June 2010.
A Catholic cemetary on the island. Note the elaborate nature of the graves.
this is a creative photo because of the angle I took this photo, it allows me to see all the sizes of trees. if I was to take it again I would probably take it the same way.
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.
There are a lot of children ... babies ... buried in the cemetary behind our house. Our medical science has come along way in the last 100 years.
