- Why do you "dig" cemeteries?
- Cemeteries are both Art and History Museums.
Since I was a child cemeteries have been a place of comfort and exploration for me.
I have had people tell me I should focus on life and not death. I have to laugh when I hear this because I am focusing on life but unfortunatly they just don't get it.
When I explore a cemetery I am feeling alive! I am looking through windows to the past. I am enjoying beautiful architecture and sculpture. I'm learning about an area's history and peoples. I'm outdoors appreciating nature and wildlife. I enjoy the peace and solitude that most of them provide.
I also dig restoration and preservation of cemeteries.
- About Me:
- Photography is a passionate hobby of mine.
I carry my camera with me everywhere I go. I just feel naked without it.
I take photos of everything in the world around me, but have always had a fondness for cemeteries.
When I'm out and about I always notice or seem to find one, no matter how small, and then I must stop for a look around. I have done this since childhood. First I would walk to nearby cemeteries then once I was a teen and could drive there was no stopping me.
I didn't always have a camera or film in those days.
Thank God for digital cameras! I have been photographing cemeteries for the past 5 years.
I'm able to share with others the visions that were once only in my minds eye!
