Search Family Burying Ground in Shickshinny, PA - Nikon D300 - what’s missing from this photo? A fence with pillars, a bench, electric and telephone wires, a main road (Rte. 11) with railing guards, and a car. It all had to go, and it took a whole lot of time.
Mt. Hope Cemetery, Rochester, New York - Nikon D300 - I was lucky with this one. Sometime later, the horse disappeared. Framing is one of the ‘everything’ in photography. The trees set this apart from mediocrity.
First Parish Burial Ground, Gloucester, Massachusetts - Nikon D300 - the two top grave symbols going back some 300 years. If you have to get somewhere far and fast, you better have wings.
Marcy Cemetery, Duryea, Pennsylvania - Nikon D300 - there are a couple of more of young John Eugene in the B&W section. A strong natural light peeking through a low hanging tree sets the JE collection apart.

The Burying Point, Salem, Massachusetts - Nikon D300 - yeah, Halloween festival time in Salem. LOL
Carlisle Indian Industrial School Cemetery, Carlisle, PA - Nikon D300 - The United States Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, generally known as Carlisle Indian Industrial School, was the flagship Indian boarding school in the United States from 1879 through 1918. At least 189 students were buried at the school cemetery.

Old Granary Burying Ground, Boston, Massachusetts - Nikon D300 - one of my award winners from a few years ago. An international landscape contest out of France if memory serves me well.

Old Hill Burying Ground, Concord, Massachusetts - Nikon D300 - this piece went from color to B&W and back to color again. I’m going to leave it color.
