I’ve taken the Nikon on several trips to area graveyards since I got it. This time I also took the Polaroid Land Camera with me. You see, I’m utterly fascinated by graveyards and the offerings people leave on graves.

I found this heart at Glenwood Cemetary here in Houston. It’s new – the rose buds and petals were still relatively fresh. I’d guess it was done for Valentine’s Day since that was last Monday. But you can see that the person who created it missed the person it was for. They included the initial for the girl and something like this takes a lot of time.

I often wonder what the stories are behind the objects I find on graves.
