November 22 - Empty Graves, Gelves, Spain

This, believe it or not, is a photo of empty graves, Spanish style. Here they bury their dead in walls. I like the way this image relates to the popular concept of death being black nothingness. Personally I'm expecting something rather better than that.

This is the cemetery for the pueblo of Gelves, near Seville. If you want to "Fly To" where I took this photo using Google Earth cut and paste these coordinates:
37°20'16.09"N 6° 1'43.67"W

CLick on this photo to get the context for this image and see some graves that are being used.
