Forgotten!

This little graveyard sits nestled against a dense wood and
far off the roadway, near a State Hospital.
It has gravestones from as early as 1856 and
and as late as the 1960's. Those buried here did not have any
family that could be found.

Canon PowerShot SX130 IS
1/15s f/4.5 at 16.4mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

So sad, but it looks to be well kept compared to some I've seen.

It's a well kept cemetery for a potter's field. We have so many neglected plots around Texas. Very nice work on the photo.
