Do you know why cemetery's have fences around them?

This is such a wonderful capture Courtenay and a great eye for seeing it. I NEVER would have seen this capture. Wonderful work!

I know there's a joke here somewhere, Mel...no, why do cemetery's have fences?

Great eye to have spotted it Courtenay, and a wonderfulportrayal of it from this excellent POV. Gorgeous too, by the way.

Great capture!

Fantastic, Courtenay! This is so cool, love the design elements, great eye, and great capture!!

8/16/2011 4:45:11 AM

Hi Courtenay,Beautiful capture my friend.I should get out and do some B&W of the Boot Hills in the Valley!!!!

8/16/2011 4:46:12 AM

You are very alert to catch this. A contrast in style and purpose but the basic design is there, WTG

8/16/2011 4:49:13 AM

Wonderful comp. and clarity, Courtenay. Love this.

I think I've been to this cemetary. It's a cool place. And I like the skyscraper; a definite contrast. Excellent work, Courtenay!

A very interesting place to shoot! Excellent eye for this!!!

8/16/2011 5:43:03 AM

beautiful capture with a wonderful pov & comp...very well done Courtenay

8/16/2011 6:10:56 AM

What an eye. I love the bare tree branches leading the eye from the monument to the building. Terrific composition, awesome details and color, Courtenay.

8/16/2011 6:29:46 AM

Well seen.. like the way you tied all the elements together

8/16/2011 10:05:14 AM

Terrific capture, Courtenay. I love the old and the new elements together.

8/16/2011 10:38:44 AM

Nice capture and comp with the big building, Courtenay! Bellefontaine cemetery in St. Louis is just like this with lots of famous people buried there.

8/16/2011 12:01:53 PM

Well done Courtenay...beautiful capture and love the pov!!

8/16/2011 12:54:07 PM

Super "eye" to spot this, Courtenay! The pov, design, colors, tones, lighting & mood make this a winning image, my friend! Good luck!

8/16/2011 12:54:36 PM

A beautiful capture, Courtenay! Love your perspective! I sure was hoping Mel would have given us the answer about the fence. Now I'm curious. I've been to the one in Key West and they lock it up at night. Guess people try to steal and vandalize.

8/16/2011 2:04:56 PM

Excellent capture Courtenay, waiting for Mel's punch line.LOL

8/16/2011 4:41:04 PM

CEMETERY just baffle me !! NICE COMP

Because People are Just Dying to get in... ;0)

8/16/2011 5:44:32 PM

Absolutely beautiful, Courtenay! Wonderful work!

8/16/2011 6:48:58 PM

Beautifully captured and framed with the fencing. The old meets new is a work of genius. Love the detail in the architecture and the rich tones in this shot.

8/16/2011 7:35:34 PM

Magnificent and unique composition! It's beautiful, Courtenay! :-) k

8/16/2011 7:40:04 PM

I agree with Rony. The bare tree branch in front of the skyscraper is amazing. I really like this image. Great job!

8/17/2011 7:23:51 AM

I had an opportunity to visit this cemetery where I last visited ATL and declined cause I DIDN'T KNOW what a marvelous photo opp I was passing up...I could kick myself a thousand times for doing that, believe me!! Excellent eye, Courtenay, great comp, color and design elements - a fabulous capture!

8/17/2011 7:49:23 AM

This is the part where you were suppose to laugh

8/17/2011 4:46:53 PM

I am laughing....that I fell for that one! You know, I'm hip deep in this wedding! :-) Hope Susan and Anita saw it! LOL!

8/17/2011 5:12:48 PM

Great eye Courtenay!! Wonderful tones, framing and detail.

8/18/2011 4:55:02 AM

Nicely composed and exposed.
