It is very peaceful. Perhaps you would be interested in www.findagrave.com and registering some of the readable headstones so family members can find their ancestors. It is something that can be very interesting.
Lovely old graveyard, beautiful capture!
Great capture!
Lovely shot!
Great capture, so much history buried here
graveyards are so peaceful... havens away from the bustling world. rob.
Wonderful capture, Excellent well done..
Wow, that's an old cemetery ... and it looks beautiful. It may sound weird and strange, but every time I pass by a cemetery, I want to stop and spend hours there, reading the stones, and just feel ............... it's such an emotional and spiritual place. Not to mention, it's a great place to take fabulous photo's, such as this. But, I seem to worry more about what others would think. :-/
Lovely old cemetery, beautiful captured !!! Love the p. o. v. !!! Vote:5+++++++ :)
Got some G.A.R. flagstaffs there. They certainly help date some of the markers.
Oh! Have been to this cemetery...and I love walking through some of the older ones in Maine...reading how the one laying below the stone was killed during an Indian attack....tragic...but a part of history!
