Hear you me.. / By Jimmy Eat World There’s no one in town I know / You gave us some place to go. / I never said thank you for that. / I thought I might get one more chance. / What would you think of me now, / so lucky, so strong, so proud? / I never said thank you for that, / now I’ll never have a chance. May angels lead you in. / Hear you me my friends. / On sleepless roads the sleepless go. / May angels lead you in. So what would you think of me now, / so lucky, so strong, so proud? / I never said thank you for that, / now I’ll never have a chance. May angels lead you in. / Hear you me my friends. / On sleepless roads the sleepless go. / May angels lead you in. / May angels lead you in. / May angels lead you in. And if you were with me tonight, / I’d sing to you just one more time. / A song for a heart so big, / god wouldn’t let it live. May angels lead you in. / Hear you me my friends. / On sleepless roads the sleepless go. / May angels lead you in. / May angels lead you in. / Hear you me my friends. / On sleepless roads the sleepless go. / May angels lead you in. / May angels lead you in.

John P. Cable Mill – Great Smoky Mountain National Park, USA – Black & White version > In Cades Cove there were few sources of power which the frontiersman knew how to harness. One of those power sources was the water wheel such as drove the early grist mills. Cable Mill is one of those. The Smoky Mountains Natural History Association keeps Cable Mill running in Cades Cove to teach the Smoky Mountain visitor a little about life in the 1800’s. The mill is operated April-October. A handful of enterprising residents in Cades Cove built water driven mills to grind grain. Their hope was that other Cades Cove families would prefer paying them to grind the grain rather than to struggle with the small inefficient tub mills at home. The tub mills were only capable of processing a bushel of corn each day. The entrepreneurs were correct and ran fine business in Cades Cove as a result. Cornmeal was the only grain that could be ground in the tub mills and so the waterwheel driven mills that could grind wheat into flour was a welcome addition to the cove. Now biscuits could be eaten some of the time instead of cornbread. Payment for grinding grain did not always mean money exchanged hands in Cades Cove. Sometimes money was paid but other times the miller was paid a portion of the resulting flour or meal. Besides John Cable, his son and also Frederick Shields operated mills. Cable and Shields took double advantage of their waterwheel by using it to power saw mills as well. Cable was the only person in Cades Cove to use the overshot water wheel. Like most business men in the Cove, Cable was also a farmer. He could be summoned from the fields by a large bell he had on the property for that purpose.

Susan Brownell Anthony / February 15, 1820 – March 13, 1906 In the decade before the American Civil War, Anthony took a prominent role in the New York anti-slavery and temperance movements. She was a prominent American civil rights leader who played a pivotal role in the 19th century women’s rights movement to introduce women’s suffrage into the United States. She traveled the United States and Europe, and gave 75 to 100 speeches per year on women’s rights for 45 years. In 1869, Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton founded the National Women’s Suffrage Association (NWSA), an organization dedicated to gaining women’s suffrage. She was a long time friend of Frederick Douglass. On November 18, 1872, Anthony was arrested by a U.S. Deputy Marshal for alleged illegal voting in the 1872 Presidential Election two weeks earlier. The sentence was a fine, but not imprisonment; and true to her word in court, she never paid the penalty for the rest of her life. Susan B. Anthony, who died 14 years, 5 months and five days before passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote, was honored as the first real (non-allegorical) American woman on circulating U.S. coinage with her appearance on the Susan B. Anthony dollar. 43° 7′ 42″ N, 77° 37′ 17″ W / 43.128333, -77.621389 / 4778402 286775 18T

Seeing the grave of a child is always a heart wrenching experience which often leaves me in a sad and emotional state. Last summer, a week after I purchased my Nikon D60, I went to a nearby cemetary to reshoot experimentally the locked gate and establish a comparison with the same photo I had made before using my compact camera. I went inside for a few minutes, and walking between the peaceful rows, I made this shot of a baby’s grave only because I found it awfully sad. I lost a baby boy in 1984 who was born by C-section, heavily handicapped and who lived only two weeks after birth. Severely depressed, unable to think clearly, living at a 40-minute drive from the hospital with a now ex-husband who didn’t cooperate, totally broke and without a car, I was never able to take care of my child’s funeral, and my baby was buried in the cemetary’s common grave. I never had the chance to pray or put flowers on his grave… I think that this might be the reason why I felt so moved by that little statue of a sleeping baby in a crib to the point of taking a picture to bring back home with me. I didn’t know what to do with it before, but my recent experiments with composite images gave me a few ideas to express those feelings. Just like Eric Clapton’s song, Tears in Heaven Images used in this composite: /

The Old Jewish Cemetery lies in the Josefov, the Jewish Quarter of Prague in the Czech Republic. One of the most impressive sights in Prague is the Old Jewish cemetery in Josefov, the former Jewish ghetto. This cemetery was used from 1439 to 1787 and it is the oldest existing Jewish cemetery in Europe, because Jews were forbidden to bury their dead outside their own district. / The Nazis made it a policy to destroy Jewish cemeteries, sometimes using the tombstones for target practice, but Hitler ordered that this cemetery be left intact, since he was planning to build a Jewish museum in Prague after all the Jews in Europe had been exterminated according to his diabolical plan. There are more than 100,000 Jews buried in this small plot, the graves being layered 12 deep in some places. This is not unusual for European cemeteries where space is at a premium. In Germany where the graves are also 12 layers deep, the tombstones mark only the top layer of the buried coffins. In the Old Jewish Cemetery in Josefov, there are around 12,000 tombstones, crowded closely together with almost no grass between them. Over the centuries, lopsided tombstones formed unruly, poetic groupings. Some of the tombstones look like beds. The surrealist author Franz Kafka enjoyed moments of quiet reflection in the old cemetery. However, his own grave lies across town in the New Jewish Cemetery. That burial ground is half empty because the generation it was built for was transported to Nazi death camps.

I saw this saying “Where will you spend Eternity?” on a tombstone on a button you’d where on your clothes. I love it. So deep, and so true. I just had to use it. So I went to one of our local cemeteries and shot this picture of this tombstone. I go there often because one of my very best friends and her mom are buried there. (Both passed from an aggressive type of lung cancer.) This tombstone just stood out to me for this project. I erased the original info on the stone, and replaced it with the saying above. Then I cut out the tombstone, and blurred the background, and then replaced the tombstone in it’s original spot. I also just had to add this bible verse….. / “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” ~Matthew 11:28 It just caught me off guard the other day when I was visiting www.iamsecond.com and listening to Brian Welch’s testimony. He used to be the lead singer of Korn, until he decided to turn his life over to GOD!!! What a testimony he has!! I do not know how to post the link to his testimony so you’ll have to go to the I AM SECOND to listen to it. I just hope this touches someone the way it has me. It surely makes you think! /

This lady is hot. During Wyatt Earp Days in Tombstone, AZ, one hundred or more folks show up in full regalia of days gone by and put on quite a show. Skits, contests, and general socializing swirl through the dusty streets and board walks and one is transported back to days gone by. Great place for photographers. This pic was taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 in natural light.

13-Dec-2009 Featured in Inspired By Life Group This is one of many tombstones from Middle Ages period. Bosnian people call this type of tombstone “stechak” (stečak). “Stechak” is always made of stone. This stechak is unique and its one of three miracles in this area as stay on three pebbles. I checked that and its true. Its very easy visible that tombstone lay on 3 pebbles. In Bosnia and Herzegovina you can find 60 thousands stechak’s, usually better saved and better designed than stechak shown here. See wikipedia sources about stechak – click here Usually its very big stone. Here is a small image so you can imagine size. / . / Camera: SONY DSC-F828 Lens: Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 28-200 mm (2-2,8/7.1-51) Date: 14-Oct-2009 Location: Village Podgradina beside Glamoc – small city, Bosnia and Herzegovina Copyright © Nedim Bosnic 2009 / Email: nedim.bosnic@gmail.com
