Beeston Cemetery

January 29, 2008

We took a walk in Beeston the other day, and happened across the Beeston Cemetery.  Cemeteries are the perfect playground for cameras.

Silk flowers seemed to be the preference over real ones.

I can’t get over how much the graves look like beds.

This tombstone is only further evidence.

Flora.  Also Husbands.

Many of the graves were in disrepair.

Or sinking.

Or heartbreaking…

Or curious.  Accepted despite what?

  1. I think these are the most interesting photography shots of a cemetery I’ve ever seen. No, I’m positive.

    Those silk flowers seem very fitting.

    And somehow, the sinking graves are quite moving.


  2. Wow, thanks! Yes, the sinking ones really got to me. It seems like they have no intention of fixing them either.
