Description
- Scotland -
The upper and older graveyard around the Kilmartin church was the most impressive cemetery I've ever seen.
Ivy and other plants grow up around the grave stones or monuments which were covered by lichens and moss.
The atmosphere was filled with history and feelings, no feelings of death but of life of the past.
No path leading through the graves and you often have to walk on them with a strange feeling, as if there were voices in the air. Every of my step was accompanied by the thought of "sorry" and "excuse me".
Thanks a lot for your interest and all kind comments! ;o)

Superb and impressive composition, not only is the technical quality excellent but you have preserved the dignity of cemetery well. Bravo, well done! V
another great find ! excellent done...
spinning around in my chair I'm sorry to react like this, but i can't help it. This is just one helluva of a capture that completely excites and delights me! Maybe it seems a bit morbid to react like this to a graveyard, but i've always felt comfortable and quite at home being is these "rest areas." Your capture is electrifying!! something about it I can't explain but it makes the hairs rise up on my arms. I'm not scared at all here. this place gives me very good feelings. i don't know what it is i'm seeing and feeling when i jump in your image, but it's almost as if i can almost make out some kind of energy. i can't explain it. this is so beautiful, Rita. i will definitely come back and spend time with this one. One of my favs. in your gallery! vote/favs!
A GLIMPSE OF MY FUTURE,

Lovely photo, Rita. I like the old, worn, but not overgrown state of this cemetery. I too find them restful, places to be at rest, to meditate in, and to remember and pray for the dead, especially those who have no one to pray for them. Thanks, John.
