Mount Moriah Cemetery, Yeadon & Philadelphia, Pa. Mount Moriah was established in 1855 as one of the first rural pastoral cemeteries in the country. Many famous persons including Betsey Ross were buried there. After decades of neglect the cemetery was officially abandoned in 2011. A group of volunteers formed the “Friends of Mount Moriah” to clear the cemetery of the overgrowth of vines, trees, & weeds that made it unvisitable, maintain & update the records, and work to establishing a legal entity for the cemetery. More information is available at friendsofmountmoriahcemetery.org/

I think this is the first Japanese Cemetery I have seen in Second Life. Located at Kakumachi maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Kakumachi/93/146/3004

In 1942 the Nazi mayor of Frankfurt ordered the distruction of the old Jewish cemetery. Some headstones survived.

This is the surviving chick and Mom in the Live Oak tree with tons of Spanish Moss hanging down. Precious creatures ...

This from February, all things appear again

Be they resting places for people of Faith, a family line, fallen heroes, or International war memorials, there are cemeteries that have stood so long a time that no more souls may be laid to rest in them.. Only ancient trees and caretakers stand watch over the departed.

 

These places of rest are full ,and often those who might visit or leave flowers and memorials are also long gone leaving no flowers or holiday memories , they rest in yet another place .

When I die

Give what’s left of me away

To children

And old men that wait to die.

And if you need to cry,

Cry for your brother

Walking the street beside you.

And when you need me,

Put your arms

Around anyone

And give them

What you need to give to me.

 

I want to leave you something,

Something better

Than words

Or sounds.

 

Look for me

In the people I’ve known

Or loved,

And if you cannot give me away,

At least let me live on your eyes

And not on your mind.

 

You can love me most

By letting

Hands touch hands,

By letting

Bodies touch bodies,

And by letting go

Of children

That need to be free.

 

Love doesn’t die,

People do.

So, when all that’s left of me

Is love,

Give me away.

Wikipedia: The Kanchanaburi War Cemetery (known locally as the Don-Rak War Cemetery) is the main prisoner of war (POW) cemetery for victims of Japanese imprisonment while building the Burma Railway. It is on the main road, Saeng Chuto Road, through the town of Kanchanaburi, Thailand, adjacent to an older Chinese cemetery. The cemetery contains 6,982 graves of British, Australian and Dutch prisoners of war, of whom 6,858 have been identified.

Abney Park Cemetery in Stoke Newington, shot with a manual focus Walimex 8mm f/3.5 fisheye lens.

 

This lens is intended for APS-C cameras, on which it produces a rectangular image with fisheye distortion; the effect can be relatively subtle if you keep the lens horizontal.

 

On a full-frame camera like the R6, it's necessary to remove the lens hood otherwise it's visible in the image. Unfortunately, even without the hood the lens won't produce a fully circular image on a full-frame camera as parts of the circle fall outside the top and bottom of the sensor. There's also a strong blue tinge round the edges of the circle, which of course was never intended to be in the frame.

The Cimitero Monumentale [tʃimiˈtɛːro monumenˈtaːle] ("Monumental Cemetery") is one of the two largest cemeteries in Milan, Italy, the other one being the Cimitero Maggiore. It is noted for the abundance of artistic tombs and monuments. Designed by the architect Carlo Maciachini (1818–1899), it was planned to consolidate a number of small cemeteries that used to be scattered around the city into a single location.

 

Officially opened in 1866, it has since then been filled with a wide range of contemporary and classical Italian sculptures as well as Greek temples, elaborate obelisks, and other original works such as a scaled-down version of the Trajan's Column. Many of the tombs belong to noted industrialist dynasties, and were designed by artists such as Adolfo Wildt, Giò Ponti, Arturo Martini, Agenore Fabbri, Lucio Fontana, Medardo Rosso, Giacomo Manzù, Floriano Bodini, and Giò Pomodoro.

 

The main entrance is through the large Famedio, a massive Hall of Fame-like Neo-Medieval style building made of marble and stone that contains the tombs of some of the city's and the country's most honored citizens, including that of novelist Alessandro Manzoni.

Taken a few days ago after an "April Fools" overnight snow. Perhaps my last chance to shoot snowy landscapes until late next fall. Most of the snow has already melted.

 

There are some interesting headstones in this cemetery including some Civil War and Revolutionary War veterans.

 

Thank you for for visiting, and for your kind comments and faves. They are greatly appreciated!
