Cemetery Photos Challenge
Cemeteryphotos Challenge- by me- @melinda010100
Established in the late 1700's, St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 is the oldest cemetery in New Orleans.
I took many photos when I was there, but just want to share a couple today for the Cemetery Challenge. I plan on sharing more next week.
In 2010 Nicolas Cage erected this pyramid shaped tomb as his future resting place.
Wall vaults were often used as temporary resting places. Family vaults could only be added to after 'a year and a day' after the last burial, so if more than one family member died within the year, they could rest in a wall vault until the family tomb could be opened.
I've used the tag #cemeteryphotos. If you have some cemetery photos, use the tag and feel free to post your photos in the comments and I'll do my best to upvote them!

It's beautiful, Melinda, and your photos show it wonderfully, love the decadent corners, the shadow cross, the pyramid.

Thank you so much for sharing this here. I had heard the name of that battle, but never knew any of these details, and had never seen the monuments. I learned a lot from you.
I am very happy that you can inform you about the war !

Wow, what a place! I love your photo tour! Thanks for sharing this post @melinda010100
It is quite amazing. I divided the photos up and will do a couple more posts with the statues and grave site momentoes. I'm glad you liked it!
Our cemeteries are not quite that old and definitely not as elaborate. These places amaze me.
Me too. I think those tombs are rather fascinating.

That is a neat one! I've passed two cemetery's up lately because I had no time to stop. I thought about his contest both times. lol
You will have time to stop one of these days! I always look forward to seeing your photos!
Very interesting the angle in which you take your photos and above all I am struck by the rustic style that has this cemetery
You are very observant! I am unable to walk, so most of my photography is done while sitting on a mobility scooter. That might be why you notice a different angle! It is a very interesting cemetery.
I understand and the truth in spite of that to achieve an excellent job is very nice to see that you are passionate about photography and how well you do it
