Cemeteries
Whenever I travel or go somewhere new I always try to visit a local cemetery. They are a place of remembrance, of a calm respite from tourist destinations, a place to see how death is embraced somewhere new… and to pay respect to the world and the people that came before.
Here you can find photography from some of the many cemeteries I’ve visited around the world. Each has it’s own unique feel and beauty.
