Photographer’s Note

"Show me your cemeteries, and I will tell you what kind of people you have." Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)

The culture of a nation can be measured on many ways. One of them is the manner in which a nation cares for its dead.

Show me that manner and I will be able to see the culture of a nation; people's respect for the laws of the land, their respect to higher ideals and their devotion to the history itself. Because cemeteries are like open historical book. We just need to know how to read it.

And remember...cemeteries exists because every life is worth loving and remembering.

I needed to re-post this photo, because TE deleted it due to too excessive frame. Thanks for all the comments I got the last time. I appreciate them.
