July 8

Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery

I had the pleasure to shoot with friend and fellow PBaser Marcia Rules today.
On our way back from the Old Point Loma Lighthouse we spotted this tree in the cemetery.

Superb image. I also love the symmetric lines of the grave stones.

A very poignant image. The tree seems to be watching over the fallen. V

The whole line of the image is shared by the direction of the hill with the graves, and the tree. Beautiful textured image and a lovely memorial image for those who lost their lives and lie in rest here.

Une prise de vue formidable de cet arbre déformé par les vents à l'intérieur de ce cimetière! V

Love the contrast between the erratic tree growth and the neatness of the gravestones.

Such an wildly eccentric leaning tree - well seen with it featured so prominently in the sloping neat and tidy cemetery.
Gill Kopy09-Jul-2017 03:04
What a stunning shot Walter. Love that tree and it contrasts beautifully with the symmetric lines of the grave stones.

totally gripping, all the more so considering the context....seems a lot of souls are buried here..
