Kafka

I like cemeteries and I like Franz Kafka, so when we were in Prague in 1994, I definitely had to visit the New Jewish Cemetery in Žižkov where Kafka was buried. It's a beautiful place and it has all what I like about cemeteries - peace, quietness, hints of the past, and sometimes signs of neglect and decay.

I had just started to photograph "in earnest" and I don't think any of my photos from Prague are really good. But this one at least captures the mood of the place on this particular afternoon quiet well.
