Photo of the Day: Sylvan Waters, Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn



Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn was, justifiably, considered a sensation when it  was founded in 1838, epitomizing a new style in pastoral landscapes for the final resting places of Americans. One of the sights on its 478 acres was Sylvan Waters, captured in this image that I took when I visited this National Historic Landmark last October.

I've done a couple of funerals there. It's breathtaking!
