Walking gently through the forgotten memories I came across this.
A kingly trinket left upon a century old gravestone.

- I wonder who placed it there and why?

Currently playing: I Woke Up In A Car - Something Corporate

Hannah said...

Breathtaking and mysterious. I wonder what the story behind that is.... I have a feeling it's a good one.

Something corporate... it takes me back.

simon n josh said...

awesome, that is really interesting..to think of a story for that.

oh..I keep thinking of "if I only had a car.." by the jayhawks when I noticed what you were listening too. A very cold rain here ..that might turn to ice. Where is spring?

Thanks for the note. yeah, you know how those wedding are on Hollyoaks..hahahaaa..

That is so neat. Almost like somebody left it as a wish or in prayer for someone? I love dangling charm bracelets, a whole lot! =]

I really really like this photo, well all of your photos but this is a favourite.
At first I thought it would be a relative but if it's a century old... I should probably have some clever response to this but I don't and instead am just quietly intruiged by it.

Thank you! I thought they went crap but I've had some alright results back so far (:

If it weren't on a grave stone, I would have stolen it. You don't steal from the dead. I blame my superstition on the southern Gothic in me.

Sol said...

Super cool song. I used to listen a lot to Something Corportate, it's a great band.

Irene said...

That is such a beautiful gesture. My gran used to do this, a sort of tradition/superstition. Love the photo too!
