I had forgotten where I shot it. Had to go searching and finally found it. It is as Callaway Gardens in Georgia.
Great shot Don! Love the reflection and the colors!

Don's Cemeteries
A recent post by Moab Man got me interested in tombstones again. Many years ago in film I had a very large collection of cemetery photos from all over the State. I think after seeing the ones that Moab Man shot I will fine tune what I am shooting. Break it down into categories. The first one being hands. Then other symbols and statues. I may expand on this some after I get to shooting. having worked on my Genealogy for 25 years I found I learned a lot of history and i think having to research all that I find doing this will teach me even more.
Here is my first from today.
Clasped hands can be a symbol of a farewell or last goodbye, and some are accompanied by wording reflecting such sentiments. This symbol can also illustrate unity in life and death, a fraternal bond or a partnership such as man and wife.

These are for Dave. Same fountain but shot in 2011 with the D3100. They are a little slower but not as slow as you wanted.

Sorry but I had a bit of an old man moment. It was the post by Moab Man that triggered my latest quest.

Re: Don's Cemeteries
My tombstone does not have any hands on it or date yet either.
Great idea Don and thanks for the explanation of the symbols. Now show us those Don's tombstones

Re: Don's Cemeteries
I have always loved cemeteries but have never had a theme to put together a collection. This gives me what I think can be interesting.

A few from today. The last two were laying down flat where they had fallen. I thought about not shooting them but decided that they deserved some respect.

Re: Don's Cemeteries
Looking through the photos of stones from back east, compared those here in the west from the pioneer days; the eastern stones of the era were far more elaborate. My mother and I were thinking it probably had to do with availability, available craftsman, and the sheer cost of transporting all the way to the west. Thoughts?
Photo in #9, any idea on the logo meaning?
