daythedog,
Gladdens me to see quality B&W. Composition, contrast and rendering of texture are spot on.
Best regards,
Janko

This is a super photo that can speak many stories. If this photo was handed out to a classroom of students and they were to write a story from it, you would have that many different stories. Hopefully what I wrote made sense. :)

All of us a only one-two generations from total anonymity upon death. Futile to mark a headstone - no one will remember or care. I spend a lot of time filming cemeteries; have yet to find anything as poignant as this! Very nicely done.

Excellent B&W. As for the story, not knowing the details may lead to us writing our own story and assuming a sad situation.

Very nice photo. It would be interesting to know the back story on this grave site. Were there any homes or other indications of civilization nearby?

This rather reminds me of the English poet Thomas Grey's epitaph: "Here lies one whose name was writ in water."
