Grave Yard by orangecrush

Grave Yard

This is a shot from one of the oldest grave yards in San Diego. The oldest grave was dated in the early 1800's. To some of you, that's not late at all, but here its like the beginning of time! ;o)
Great lighting! Old graveyards are neat to visit. Wonder what those people's stories are? Early 1800s-wow.

It's a beautiful shot, the light and the shadows are lovely. There is something fascinating about seeing how old the earliest grave is.

this reminds me of a film ive a seen where the white people had graves with head stones & outside of the cemetary fence were wooden sticks marking where the black slaves were buried cause they werent allowed to be in the graveyard, amazing what people got away with in the old days!!! fantastic shot love it x
