Rice Cemetery, Dallas, PA


This is one of my favorite places in Dallas. If I need inspiration, it is the place I go. I always find something new here, no matter how many times I visit (and I visit a lot).

I took a couple different shots of this view, but I really liked this one where I focused on the mountain in the background.


Tall pine trees surround this cemetery, and when I walk though them at the entrance, I feel like I'm walking back in time. The cemetery is right off a fairly busy road, but when you walk in it is incredibly quiet and peaceful. So quiet, I could hear the bees buzzing in the flowers.


Once a home for horses, now a hiding place for chipmunks and other wild critters! I missed the chipmunk with the camera--maybe next time.

I loved the contrast between the old rusty fence, the purple violets, and the touch of fading red paint on the barn. I never noticed the fence before.
