Cemetery Statuary

[questor]

I recently spent a few hours at Calvary Hill cemetery looking for statues. The newer stuff just does not have the same level of details that the older statues present. I do my best to not include names, and really try to blurr out any headstones in respect for those there and their families.
C&C is always welcome.

Great photos! I shoot mostly urban decay these days and have been planning to make a late evening trip to the big, old cemetery here in Arlington sometime soon.

Yeah after this last trip I do plan on going back as I ran out of light and there were several shots I wanted to get but couldn't. I discovered that I really like this kind of work and will be planning to find more old cemeteries with statues in the DFW area to shoot. Thanks for the heads up on the arlington one.

if your looking for a cemetery in Arlington there is a great one on cooper over between california and whatever street that is just south of it. Ugh im drawing a blank. it is back behind the racetrack where the migrant workers stand every morning.

LOL we have been looking for a creepy looking cemetary for a while now to photog my fiancees car. he has a show car, 09 HHR panel wagon that he has done in a hearse theme. his speaker box in the back of the panel is a casket. his licence plates read HHRSE. heheh
