Laurel Grove Cemetery
This is Love: to fly heavenward,
To rend, every instant, a hundred veils.
The first moment, to renounce life;
The last step, to fare without feet.
To regard this world as invisible,
Not to see what appears to oneself.”
~~Jalalu ’d Din, “Selected Poems from the Divan”

This week I began what I hope will be a continuing project photographing the raven, Nevermore, in cemeteries in the United States and around the world. Naturally, I began with my favorite cemetery, Bonaventure, here in Savannah as I have been shooting pictures there for more than thirty years. I also shot some photos at Laurel Grove Cemetery, also here in Savannah, on a rainy Saturday. Below are a couple of samples from those shoots.

Also, I had to add the following two photos because this happened during the shoot at Bonaventure–perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime experience:
