Little Joe is creepy
Everything about this is creepy – from the death of 16 month old child, to the man-looking face to the oddly shaped feet to the giant-size hands to the fact that the man/child seems to be resting his head on a book. So naturally, I made a photograph.

Sky Wire
The last row of family plots, at the top of a hill, had fences around them. I don’t know if they were trying to keep people/spirits in or out. But I do know that I made this photo from inside one of those grave-cages, so maybe they aren’t as effective as they were meant to be?

Sunset Angels
I live on the very western edge of the Central time zone, where a December 21 sunset is at 5:44 pm.

It cut into my first afternoon of photographing the city. But it also let me see this cemetery sunset. So, really, it all worked out.

I listened through the cemetery trees
Hello, and welcome to Random Music Reference Day. We here at One Day | One Image are the first ones to acknowledge that our brain works in a weird way and that random music lyrics will often attach themselves to certain images. Sometimes the lyrics-photo connection may make sense to, well, normal people. Other times, the link is obscure, at best. But the brain wants what the brain wants – I have no control over it.
And so, here we go, with listening through the cemetery trees, a line from “One Headlight” by the Wallflowers.

Obelisks and a threatening sky
At some point (apparently) obelisks and tall statues were popular in cemeteries. This view makes me think that maybe the clouds are about to do battle with an obelisk/statue coalition…
