These Graves From Around The World Are Sweet, Strange And Just Bizarre.

I don't see #18 as being tragic either. I see nature (the tree), embracing and protecting mother.

That's a beautiful way to look at it. What a great example of making the choice to see positive instead of negative.

#2 looks Photoshopped to me. The size and shape of the shadow don't match the other shadows in the picture.

I am guessing the "girl in the glass box" one was not originally designed with a glass box, but that was added to protect the marble from acid rain effects.

I think the tree hugging "Mother" is nice, not creepy as well!

It is a flat "stone" that has been laser etched with the photo of the woman, which is why it looks odd - those shadows are just part of the image, not actual shadows of a 3-d object. Odd choice for a gravestone, but someone obviously loved her a lot!


And confess - how many of you figured out the maze before you continued scrolling? I did!

This reminds me of something I heard when I was younger: "When I go, I'm going to have myself and all my possessions put into a car and then the car loaded with C4. After the explosion, I'm going to have a marker put at the bottom of the hole so that way I can leave at least ONE impression on the earth."

All of these images are hauntingly beautiful...except for the cell phone, lol.

I loved them all and pay my respects at both grandparents graveyards regularly. I find graveyards fascinating. I was glad #8 was explained, what a sweet mother. I however don't know how I'd feel about creeping down the steps of that tomb in a storm. It is all art to me.
