I had this in one of my folders. I was not sure if I wanted to post it or not as I was not sure if I liked it. A few people mentioned that they like it so I thought I would post it.
This is in very rural Saskatchewan with nothing around for miles.
I like this very much! The tree is a comforting presence among those old pioneer tombstones.
ReplyDeleteI like it too - especially the tree that offers shelter to the tombstones. Probably is a family cemetery.
ReplyDeleteExcellent photo.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThis is Popowich Cemetery (Ukrainian Orthodox).
ReplyDeleteSomething interesting is the two headstones under the tree are only inscribed with birth dates (John Popowich-1854 and Anna Popowich-1860), no death dates.
Thanks for the information. I should have asked you in the first place.
DeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnother awesome find, team! Good work!
ReplyDeleteHuman beings can make rich and full lives anywhere. What stories could they tell, if they were able?
I like this tree photo best!
ReplyDeleteI stumbled across this webpage and my breath was taken away! The two graves under the tree belong to my great great grandparents. The next day, I took my laptop to my 82 year old mother's house and said, "I have something to show you," and when I opened the page for her to see, her eyes grew wide with shock. "My grandfather planted that tree!" she whispered! "Oh my goodness, that's my great Baba and Gedo." What a wonderful impact your photo has had on us all. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment. Glad to know something simple could affect someone like this.
