Tonight's news coverage reported vandalism in this Ft Worth cemetery.

I fear, that one of the images that they showed was one of these crosses.

I'm glad I got these images prior to the damage.

    I love the first one; the distortion from the fisheye makes the cross almost appear animate, looming over the grave site.

    I just don't understand vandalism, especially in cemetaries. Why do some people feel the need to destroy what's not theirs? Such a shame.

    It's funny to read this post I just shot an old cemetery in Ky where all the headstones were pushed over many were broken.

    Hey Jerry,

    Love the first one. Must have been a really clear day for the sky to come out so dark.

    It's always tough to hear about stuff like that but haven taken so many photos in old cemeteries I know a lot of the damage just comes from the age of the head stones and it unfortunately always looks like vandalism.

    Keep up the good work thumb.gif
