Images of remembrance

As someone who also shares that ‘rather morose’ hobby of photographing cemeteries, it was difficult not to respond to Mary Shaw's invitation to share images in order to compare how the dead are commemorated around the world.1 In these instances: in stone in the crowded old Jewish cemetery in Prague (top left); with images and flowers on Venezia's Cimeteria (top right); and in this stupa (a Buddhist religious monument) in Siem Reap as a stark reminder of the genocide perpetrated by the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia (bottom left).
