Graveyards are fascinating places! I'm sure no one will mind you posting photos of one. All the history and architecture, the strange carvings and inscriptions... I'm a bit of an oddball maybe, but I love cemetaries, the older the better :)
Lovely pictures - it's hard to choose a favourite. The lanterns are beautiful and the flowers topped with snow are, too. And the stone head above the snow is so poignant. You have a real eye for interesting detail! Thanks for sharing these.
If everything was shiny and happy all the time, then how would we appreciate it? *g* Besides, I'd say atmospheric is a better word for your pics - these are fab, not least because I adore graveyards! I shall be looking forward to more... *g*
