Boston Tombstones
These are some cemetary shots from Boston that I took last year on a field trip. Amazing history in Boston. These were shot (in a very non-artistic manner) with a Nikon D2H and 17-55mm f/2.8. Here ya go...
Paul Revere here...
John Hancock...
The back of John Hancock's tombstone...
A newborn from the 1600's. Notice the skull on the tombstone... these slowly got better as years passed. In the 1600's it was a skull... then it got wings... then it slowly became an angel a hundred years later.
Notice the nicer angel in this one...
I don't remember why the guide said this was done, but some tombstones wer e pummeled by a musket... this being one of them...
Another view...
