Yes, the freshly dead are always more interesting.

| So, we are going to be beset with over 300 cemetary images. like a flea infestation. Oh, God, how many tombs and rows and rows of the dead. Not my cup of tea for a challenge. Well, this one will set me off thinking. |

Ah but there is so much more to find, certainly more than just tombs and rows of headstones! |

It's been an hour since the challenge has been posted and we already have one submission.
Wonder if this person is a keeper at a cemetary!

So I was in Albuquerque last month, got lost and found a quasi-deserted cemetary.
I felt as though I were in a scene from an old Clint Eastwood movie. The Good, The Bad and the Dead.
It is just off the major north-south freeway, and is bordered by construction companies and warehouses.
But the location was very compelling, so I kept shooting, wondering about the families whose loved ones were buried here. So little upkeep had been done: it felt abandoned and largely ignored, though many of the hand-done markers showed love, care and skill when they were first put there.
This week I will be home, muttering under my breath about bad timing, feeling as though local graves are too uninteresting....

I will be selling prints posthumously.
No money will be accepted. Souls only please.
PM me for shipping instructions if interested.

I have taken a grand total one one picture in my life in a cemetary:
Guess I won't be using that one!
Edited because I'm a lame-brain and forgot I had 2 others:

| I would not count girlgirl out for this one. She lives in the right spot for backgrounds, wonderful models and has a way with spooky "other world" look. |

| Ugh... the way I'm feeling tonight, this may easily turn into a "Self Portrait" challenge soon! (I'm not usually up, surfing the web at 2:00 a.m., but my routine the last few days has included a middle-of-the-night, violent coughing spell. Aaaaaaah.) |
