Hillside Resting Place

This cemetery is quite old, and a few of my ancestors are buried here. I enjoy walking through it, and since it is a small cemetery, you can take your time, allowing your mind to wonder back when they were here, wondering what it was like, and wishing you could have known them.

The color is so vivid. It reminds me of a scene in the play Our Town by Thorton Wilder.

Gorgeous! Is that a church in the background? It seems many country cemeteries are part of the church grounds.

[Rick Schies]

@marilyn Yes, it is a Mennonite church

I do that with cemeteries - think of the family, their history, their story! The light is perfect highlighting some of the stones!

I like how the sky dominates 2/3 of the photo. It really draws the eye to the cemetery. Perfect. I always wonder about the people too.

Oh, I love the light on this. The red building and the blue sky and the grave markers are all lit up and the color is very rich. You have taken a new direction in your photography. AWESOME!
