I've had this one in the archives for a while but never got around to using it. This is a photo taken in the St. Johannis Friedhof (St. John's Cemetery) in the northwest part of Nuremberg outside the city walls of the Altstadt. The graves here date from 1518 to the mid-19th century. We're not being ghouls by going here-- it's recommended in the city tour guide (their claim to it being "world famous" should be taken with a grain of salt though). This was taken last spring, and the bike was already there-- nothing staged, and the flowers in bloom. For more photos of the Friedhof (including some taken during December's snowstorm), check here.

I hate to admit it, but I do love checking out the cemeteries of Europe with you. My fave being the Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris.- B
This is beautiful.
Might I also suggest Edinburgh as a cemetery...uh, destination? And there's gotta be lots in Ireland, but we found Ennistymon to be haunting.
