  1. The cemeteries are truly a world apart. Very nice monochrome.

  2. Great photos – Pere Lachaise is like walking down the avenues of the dead – not a place I would choose to spend the night 🙂

  5. I have always wanted to walk through that cemetery. I first saw it from the air, then made some business partners take me by there. Of course, I could only take photos from the car. 😦 Love your view of the landmark.
