I’m back to editing and sharing photos from some of the incredible cemeteries I have visited. Today’s photos are from Rock Creek Cemetery in Washington DC. Originally founded in 1719, the cemetery became Washington DC’s public cemetery in 1840. Shortly afterwards, it was expanded in the style of the rural cemetery movement. The cemetery is full of fascinating monuments and memorials to photograph.
