Cemitério


Cemitério, originally uploaded by WinnieMinnie.
I am having dreams. Not that I never dream but the dreams I am having now are what I call numinous. They are clear on the image: sharp, colorful, clear. They are coherent, concrete. But they do not make any bell ring into my head.

While I was thinking about those dreams today, I saw this image I took in Wales on 2007. It's a normal church graveyard, but I found it interesting that all front tombs had fresh flowers. Back at home, I worked only with the saturation controls, making the green less green and leaving the flowers as they originally were.

It is for me a very evocative scene. Why do we put flowers on tombs? Is it an act of giving to the dead of to ourselves?
