With their whispering of
eternal and mortal things, cemeteries repel some people and draw 
others in, including our readers for many scenes in Dà Fhaol Mharbh take place
in these final resting places. Those who 
appreciate
graveyards know there’s a solitude and grace out amongst the stones that is
absolutely unique and unmistakable. There’s a cold that isn’t of the bone or flesh, a warmth that
isn’t of the sun. . . A paradox, where
rabbits and apple trees thrive, deep below skeletal hands are folded over empty
ribcages and maggots partake of their never-ending feast.
Of course, this is a perfect place for vampyres!
Remembering to keep our voices low and watch where we step, Debra and I
have spent countless hours (and a lot of film) wandering about where handsome
vampyres might find a good day’s slumber, finding ourselves amazed by the creativity,
extravagance and emotion these places express.
Hope you enjoy this sampling 
of our favorite photos.
Cemetery statuary is beautiful both in and out of context. These sculptures are intricate works of devotion to the Art but also
the
touching memorials of those left behind to those gone before.
From a simple cross to a megalithic monument, these pieces speak volumes
about what we think of art, life and death.
Cemeteries have stories to tell, care to listen? If you’re lucky, you’ll hear music. . .
