I recently traveled to Paris with my family and my mother suggested we visit the Cimetière du Père-Lachaise. The entire trip I had been taking photos and thought the cemetery would be a fantastic opportunity for some spookier shots. As soon as we entered the cemetery I was immediately drawn to the grave-site above.
I took several pictures of it while on my way into and out of the main cemetery area, and many of the photographs turned out like the first one. Going back through the photos however I noticed kind of a creepy glitch on the second photo above. I took the first and second pictures consecutively, and can’t help but feel a little creeped out by the purple and green tint and how the photo seemed to be compressed and overlayed on the intended image.
I don’t know if spirits can cause glitches in electrical devices, but this photo definitely makes me feel uneasy every time I pass it in the album.
Creepiness aside, I have several posts about Père-Lachaise Cemetery. It’s one of my favorites. Here’s one statue there that memorializes concentration camp victims. Here’s another one that is thought to bring fertility.

In my city there’s this trail down by the river where everyone walks their dogs, and if you take the right path into the forest you’ll discover a dog memorial on a fallen down tree. The tree is covered in the name tags and collars of dogs who have passed away.
