A life sized angel figure carrying something in her right hand (which is perilously cracked at the wrist). Next to her is a barefoot child sized figure missing a head.

Nothing left but the glass
#31DaysOfGraves #glass #cemeteries
Old falling apart grave monument in the shape of a cross with a broken out photo holder spot and some glass marbles embedded near the bottom and top—no lettering visible. Close up of the marbles near the top—they make a circle surrounding 4 bigger marbles and a white smudge is in the center Close up of the marbles near the bottom—a seemingly random pattern of about 20 marbles in various colors

The #language on this stone and the person memorialized here in the middle of the USA remain a mystery to me.
#31DaysOfGraves #Cemeteries
Older arc-top gravestone with a cross carved on the face above a language that may be something like Armenian. Only the birth and death years (1878-1914) are easy to understand for an American photographer.

Always loved this one from 1870—I don’t know Heinrich Sporleder’s nautical history, but he certainly had one.

Photo showing flames and buildings with text: Jason Hickel • @jasonhickel What's striking about capitalist civilization is that it has no real direction. There's no vision for social progress, no commitment to improving human welfare or ecology. All we get is the chaos of profit-oriented production and accumulation as the world burns around us.

Always speaking the truth, I miss this man.
Picture of Tom Petty with his quote: "Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved in it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things..."
