Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery
120 City Park Avenue
New Orleans, Louisiana
circa 1840
Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery was built on the banks of what was Bayou Metairie at the end of Canal Street in 1840. In 1841, the remains of firemen buried elsewhere in the city were moved to Cypress Grove. The entrance pylons and lodges were designed in the Egyptian style by Fredrick Wilkinson for a cost of $8,000. Many Protestant began to be buried here when the Girod Street Cemetery began to deteriorate. The cemetery is lined with Wall Vaults many of which contain the remains of volunteer firemen. There are also several large multi-vault tombs of volunteer fire companies such as Perserverance Fire Co No 13, Philadelphia Fire Engine Co No 14 and the tomb of Eagle Fire Co No 7. Elaborate tombs such as those of the Robert Stark and the WH Letchford families stand in the cemetery alongside the cast iron tomb of former mayor foundaryman, Charles L Leeds. One of the most interesting tombs, is the Soon On Tong Association tomb used as a temporary burial space of Chinese residents. The remains were once brought here for ceremony before being shipped back to China. The tomb of Maunsell White, veteran of the Battle of New Orleans and promoter of the use of hot peppers and pepper sauces (still used today), is buried here.

Our 13 year old German Shepard Labrador cross that is now suffering from bone cancer. Her determination and resolve during such a difficult time is very inspiring.
Bryan is making it all happen. Two weeks into the project, Bryan's Jamaican partner Shaggy, whose land we were building on, had a severe asthma attack and died on the way to the hospital. We were all pretty shocked by the turn of events. I never got a picture of Shaggy because I was scared of him a little. I was just working up the courage when he passed because the day before he sarcastically muttered "Rough Girl" at me in a very dry tone with a wry smile on the way back to the bar in the evening time. Bryan's unflappable positivity kept the project going in large part.

This 170-foot-high decorated water tower was constructed in 1949 and restored by the people of Collinsville, Illinois in 1993; it has since been adopted by Collinsville as a super-size symbol of local pride and perserverance.

What i did in this Photoshop image was i took grass and made it the background and then i just took the soccer ball and put it over the old soccer bll that was in the image so it would match the one inside the goal. Then i used the horizontal type tool and typed perseverance and put a black stroke around it. I also took the def. of perseverance and made it green with a darker green stroke. For the soccer goal i also made the oppacity of it go down and i put a shadow behind it. I really liked this assignment, because it really made me think about what i would do if i ever created a photo like this.

Taken at a diner in PA - Only 165 more days to go! Sometimes it's hard to imagine I've come this far in the 365 Bokeh project. I've had the camera in the shop twice and lost my motivation more in this project than I did the project365 or 365 days of my dog.
The one has def. been harder and I've wanted to give up more often. However, I am glad I have not. Perserverance until the end - even if it takes me longer than 365 to finish!
