Suck up =) But thank you. I'm being very careful with the colors after that last set of prints! Scary!

Vandalism or just the long term effects of neglect? Where is this place? Is it a small old cemetary that is no longer being maintained or the older section of a much larger cemetary with a small budget?

To answer the first question, some of the damage was without a doubt vandalism. Some looks like it could be age. The cemetery is the Old Burial Ground in Gardner, Massachusetts and it's a small, old cemetery that's no longer used and only loosely maintained. A very pretty spot though.

I also love the first shot. I have been to numerous cemeteries and have never seen a tree growing around a tombstone like that.

I actually look for that specifically when I photograph a cemetery. It's common out on Cape Cod. It just gets me how the trees surround the stones.

This area is pretty low key. Just burned out rowhouses and crackheads. thats it. you can drive all around this place, so you dont have to worry about your car getting the wheels stolen.

The tree just actually grew like that? It looked to me like the head stones were loose and just leaning near or on it. That's incredible.

I would love to get out to PA. It's definitely on my list!

And yes, the trees grow that way. It's not the first one I've seen either. It's actually formed AROUND the stones. Trippy, huh?
