Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

Here are two of the three Wind Combs (El Peine del Viento) at the edge of the San Sebastian bay. I'm mildly obsessed with the Basque artist Eduardo Chillida, and this is my favorite piece of his. We were lucky enough to see it on a very cold, blustery day when the waves were really working the coast.

Comb Beck stream above Buttermere. I used a polariser to remove reflections and got what I think is an almost translucent quality to the water in the foreground - you're not quite sure if it's there.

This comb was made with a small, one inch plastic comb, loose leaves from our collection, and model magic modeling clay to keep it nice and light. Then it was hand painted. Created by my roommate, Tea.
