Whenever I come upon a cemetery for the first time there are several things I look for :
one of those things is the receiving vault.
most 19th century cems. had a separate stone bldg.
In some cases the vault is built into a hillside
or,right under the lawn with a hatch door.
This arrangement is a new one to me, as is the funeral chaple.

OK, Guitorman, which is it - tachophilia (obsessed with speed), taphephilia (sexual arousal from being buried alive), or taphophilia (love of things related to cemeteries)? ;-)

Wow.
I've never seen anything like that before.
Specialized chaple.

Now those aren't the real pipes.
They're hidden.

My older brother is a pipe organist.

Are those boarded windows? Look like 12 Stations of the Cross may have been there.

Those two remarks at the top of the frame are a scream !

Love those high vaulted ceilings.

hmmm...

Kind of like St. Alban's,the high Episcople church @ 2nd & Tabor where my brother converted to that faith some35 years ago.
It was imported stone by stone from England.
Still intend to go back for a visit and to see if that rector is still there.
My brother was the organist there.

well thats' grand.

A cemetery.Oh goody! I love cemeteries!
Always have.
Since earliest childhood they have been a place of peace, sunlight and repose for me.
Always have been.
I have spent so many hours in cemeteries,
alone and with others.
They are a place of nature and architecture, history and yes,spookiness.
Doesn't matter I'm a tachophile through and through.
Both my brothers like 'em too.
With all this love for them I might want to consider getting my own place in one for that day.

Painting with light - that´s photography.

I think these photos are really captivating, you can feel the atmosphere and history, brilliant

I think it could be an early television set, the knob top left is channel up/down, bottom right is the volume, and under the display is the on/off control - hey well it could be
