A picture a day from around the Roanoke, VA area.
Oh, how sad! It looks like Jennie lived a nice long life, but her two children(?) did not. Interesting grave marker - looks like marble.
We tend to forget how short lives were... Lovely composition!
A very sombre, but beautifully composed picture.
Beautiful, Tanya. Looks like weathered marble.
great weathering on those markers.
Those have been there a long time. I find cemeteries very interesting places.
How beautiful, and a reminder life passes by in the blink of an eye. Wonderfully aged columns and urns.
I always wonder why someone died at such an early age when I visit the cemetery.
I missed all those neat shots when I was in Fincastle several years ago. Liking this warm afternoon!
Visually, quite an impressive photo, Tanya. Once you get past the visual aspect and look at the content....well, makes you think a little. Good job!
This is a beautiful old monument.
Wide variability in lifetimes. Those stones are very moldy, aren't they?
What a contrast in the coloration here --- very cool! Thanks very much for sharing this on the links at Taphophile Tragics. :)
So pretty! I think old cemeteries are fascinating.
Interesting.
Very cool photo!
Such a fantastic picture.Beneath Thy Feet
