From the vault


This is an old image that didn't make the cut for a third year project where the theme was "mundane". I went to the cemetery and photographed fake flowers at the end of winter...my teacher thought it was great, I'm just a weirdo who is fascinated by cemeteries. When my brother and I were kids we used to love to visit cemeteries, most likely because we thought they were haunted. Our parents thought we were crazy but I distinctly remember a trip to our grandparent's house one summer when we made them stop at every one we passed by on our way there. To this day I find myself drawn to the Mount Pleasant cemetery and the one in St. Jamestown and I'm not quite sure why, maybe I was a grave digger in a past life.
