I think I like taking photographs of graves. There's interesting graphic design, a variety of textures, light and shadow, and the subjects tend not to blink. And there certainly are some beautiful images to capture.

I went looking for someone else's grave to fill a request, but didn't find it. Not yet. I'll return, and while I'm nearby I'll check out the Showman's Rest Cemetery. There's another photo request waiting for me there.

Know what else I like about going to a cemetery? Returning. One of these days I'll have to skip that part of it, but until that day (far off, I pray), I'll keep visiting with a camera.

Cemetery photography has always made me happy. Well, I love cemeteries anyway (except for all these new-fangled ones where the tombstones are below the damn grass...where's the character?), but taking pictures of graves has always been one of my more enjoyable hobbies. *sigh*
