Noticed your post about cemetaries and was just wondering what you thought of Greenwood? It%26#39;s just that I%26#39;m off to NY again soon and would like to ask you if there were many ANGEL tombstones? I%26#39;m interested in photographing them (as well as doors) on all my travels but never quite got round to this on my last few trips! Hope you%26#39;re still on the forum to read this!

Green-Wood Cemetery is one of the more beautiful cemeteries in the Country, if not the world. Not only is it the final resting place for many famous Americans such as Samuel Morse, Jean Michel Basquiat, Leonard Bernstein, Louis Tiffany, Horace Greeley and Charlie Ebbets, but the monuments themselves are true works of art.

One of the more memorable angels is weeping over the deceased. See the photo here:
