Comments on Prague, Old Jewish Cemetery

There's something poetic about the leaves that have fallen and the weathered tombstones. Such an odd arrangement. Nothing like you see today.

it looks like their bodies themselves have fallen willy nilly and turned to stone

Such an odd arragement of tombstones is incredible...you can captured it very well and the leaves amongst the stones adds a lovely touch to the overall feel of the image

Love the odd shapes and sizes of these cemetary stones.
They're usually so uniform and organized. Very nice!

I'm one of few people who love walking through cemeteries and reading the inscriptions. This one must have been awesome. Incredible piece of history and so well captured.

The massage headstones make an interesting, if somewhat forbidding picture! It's an amazing jumble of stones.

There is a profound sadness about the neglect of these markers amidst the heavy refined buildings in the background. Unfortunately - the fact of this being a Jewish cemetery in central Europe - likely provides too vivid an answer to the mystery. Alas.

I like it a lot, you framed it very narrowsly.

This is a nice metaphor, the leaves, annual, and the mortuar stones, eternam. It makes a lot of sense...
