Cemetery Near the Coast | Sacramento Fine Art Photographer

Aug 28

Written By

This is a re-post from mid 2015. I find such peace and pleasure exploring cemeteries, reading the headstones. But, I haven't photographed in a cemetery in awhile. I think it's about time. Who wants to join me? Toward the top of the rolling hills near the coast, my friend and I discovered yet another cemetery that had been part of the community for a very long time. While the sun was shining maybe a bit too strongly and the breeze was blowing just perfectly, I felt such peace in this lovely location. The headstones in the cemetery were modest although there was plenty of evidence of love and remembrance. Many of the headstones were handmade/carved; some were painted, some were not. I don't usually convert my images, but this set seemed to tell the story best in black and white.

Heartfelt Words headstones in cemetery near the coast headstones and daffolides in cemetery near the coast headstone and mementos in cemetery near the coast Many times when we explore these old cemeteries, we see vandalism. I don't believe that's the case here. The cross on this headstone had broken off the top I'm assuming because of age and deterioration. I hope the cross remains there where it fell. headstone and cross in cemetery near the central California coast headstone ornament in cemetery near the coast headstone in cemetery near the coast bench in cemetery near the coast Thank you for looking.
