If I know when I'm going to die, I wonder what things I would do before that. I'll go to church and eat every food I haven't eaten yet I guess.

Beautiful. Some cemeteries attract a lot f tourists because of their beauty, like in Argentina, Cuba and other places. I do understand the beauty of it. I also have a penchant for abandoned places. They are creepy, yet beautiful in their derelictness. I liked this post.

Please, for now on, count me among your followers.

Good example of how you can snap the same subject from various points of view to create a unique exploration of a space. Well done!

I am charmed with the photography B/N @ soyrosa and here as you emphasize the textures of the concrete one of this place, giving him protagonism to the fact of being a cemetery. I was charmed with the photographies.

Thank you for your considerate comment @zailecita :-) Yes, you noticed the amazing textures too! I love them. Both in the concrete and the nature that took over part of the church :-)

The jewish cemetery in Prague is beautiful. Last week I was in Barcelona and there is huge and interesting cemetery close to port. If you will visit BCN, take a walk... have a fun steemian ;-)

Much 👍. I Like the color treatment you've done here. It ties the photos together nicely.

soyrosa (74) · 7 years ago

Thank you @monotharch - It can be worth it to create a series in similar tones indeed! I don't always do so, since every picture has its own story to tell and needs its own specific treatment, but here I liked treating them equal :-)

mystic and terrifying pictures. So hard to imagine, that they had not enough place for the dead bodies, so they added new layers of earth to burry more.
Sad sad story :( Let us pray that the world will find peace some day!

Yes, I hope they've found peace indeed - it's an incredibly sad story.

These photos are gorgeous @soyrosa! At the same time they are a lottle creepy, maybe it's because of the history just the monocrome/ruined building effect!

Nice one
