Waverley Cemetery sits between Bronte beach to the north, and Clovelly and later Coogee beaches to the south. It faces almost due east, looking onto the Pacific Ocean. There's no way on earth that a location like this would be set aside as a cemetery these days with population pressures being what they are, but Waverley Cemetery was established in 1877 when Sydney was quite a different place. The urban sprawl had yet to begin and transport options that didn't eat hay were limited, so a local resting place needed to be found for residents of the eastern suburbs. The cemetery consists of around 40 acres with over 80,000 internments in over 50,000 grave sites. (Some, I noted from headstones, are shared between family members.)

Here the sun has just risen over the ocean at the start of a new day, with a Celtic cross headstone in the foreground. I was originally going to put the details of whose it is, but I think it's better to regard it as being a generic memorial given the number of residents here.
