Even though I’m not a religious person, old churches are places that I’ve always loved. I like them best when they are empty and the epitome of peaceful solitude.
So many churches come to mind as I write this but the one that stands out is St. James’s in lovely Stradbally, Co. Waterford.

Something so peaceful about the graveyards particularly and the first shot here captures that so strongly, gorgeous post Jean.
Really like the first shot – gorgeous.:-)
Found my grandmothers grave here, and a lot of her relatives. Long way from New Zealand.

Hello Kevin, thanks so much for writing and I’m sure it was a very emotional ‘finding’.’ I can hardly think, though, of a more peaceful resting ground.
