Graves, Gravestones, Headstones, Mausoleums, Crypts and other places and evidence of final rest.
This theme suggestion brought to you by Yugoboy!
September 22, 2011 at 12:29 am #41181zincprincessParticipantAre gates or entrances to a graveyard fair game assuming you can tell that it is a graveyard.
September 22, 2011 at 12:31 am #41182ElsinoreKeymasterDon’t see why not. It would fall into “other places and evidence of final rest”, so as long as it was obviously a cemetery, I’d think it would be fair game.
October 2, 2011 at 2:04 pm #41183UranusParticipant3 graveyards, 2 days, 316 shots, 36 possibles, 10 selected – impossible choice. I wouldn’t say that I fancy my chnces for a change, but I really can’t wait for this one…

Yeah. When I proposed this one, I didn’t take into account the number of people interred in churches in Europe. It’s going to take significant effort to narrow down.
Maybe I need a couple alts… 😈

This is happening 4 days before it goes live, the idea of literally dancing on people’s graves makes me happy. I’ve shot a lot of stuff at Green Wood

it’s an amazing place and by the 22nd the trees should be in full Fall colors. I am almost a quiver!

that does indeed look like a good time.
combine it with some halloween decorations and the occasional zombie and it would be perfect.
October 24, 2011 at 9:54 am #41187ravnosticParticipantI just realized I’ll be working early Wednesday. May I ask for an OBO?
Not that I have my pictures picked out yet–this is a tough theme for me, but when I do… 😆
October 24, 2011 at 4:49 pm #41188KestranaParticipantYeah I can OBO
October 24, 2011 at 5:27 pm #41189FarktographerParticipantBecause of the fact that the people buried can’t give permission to have their photographs taken, I must outright condemn this theme as a whole. Shame upon all who participate in such atrociti–aw, whatever. I’ve got nothing this week, and the only graveyard nearby is the size of a driveway. Looks like I’ll be out another week.
October 25, 2011 at 1:51 am #41190KestranaParticipantCheck out the churches you just photographed. Many English churches have people buried in the floor and walls…

I just got back from a small farmland cemetery. 20ish headstones. Is there anything cool in the small one by you?
October 25, 2011 at 10:27 am #41192ravnosticParticipantThanks Kes; I’ll get you the link sometime today (or tonight, if I shoot something better).

Unfortunately, no – they’re pretty plain. I’ve checked it out, looked around to see if I can set up some sunset/sunrise/starlight photos, anything really. Nada. Not a very photographic location. Might look into posting some church photos, but not sure if that’d fly as well with the voters.
October 25, 2011 at 12:17 pm #41194QueenMabParticipantIs it OK to post photos from the catacombs in Paris? Actual bones are involved…
