I recently spent a wonderful morning photographing at the Historic Old City Cemetery in Sacramento, California. Established in 1849, the cemetery is the home to many of the graves of the founders of the city and of many prominent California politicians. It is also filled with beautiful flowers and trees.
The cemetery has some wonderful statuary similar to what I’ve been photographing at rural cemeteries on the East Coast. The one difference – I didn’t find any angels at the Historic Old City Cemetery.
Here are a few of my favorite photos of statuary I found there
