A New Cemetery

Today I made my way to Bethlehem Cemetery, which I found over on Jackson Road in Ann Arbor last week because I had to pass it to get to the hotel where my family was staying. I only managed to make it maybe a quarter of the way through this cemetery, not because it is very large, although it is a good size, but because of what I found there. I was in the middle of taking a picture when I heard a car coming down the aisle I was on, knowing I was going to have to move my truck I turned and started to head towards it, when I caught a glimpse of the vehicle; it was a hearse. My first thought was “Oh no, there is a funeral procession and here I am taking pictures,” but then I caught a better glimpse out of the corner of my eye and had to stop and look. That is when I saw Possessed, a 1985 Chevy Hearse that had been custom painted with some of the most detailed demons and spirits that I have ever seen. With the permission of the owner, a very nice woman named Melissa, I took probably 45 pictures of her car with the cemetery for a backdrop. I tried to get as much details into the pictures as possible, which is the reason I have so many. It was probably my most unusual find in a cemetery to date, and in addition to the images of the car Melissa was able to tell me about some other cemeteries in the area, hopefully I will be able to get to some of those this summer as well. As soon as I get them ready I will add all the pictures from this cemetery to the gallery.
