I think it’s a fascinating thing to look at how people all around the world bury and pay tribute to the dead. I stopped and photographed this graveyard in The Japanese countryside just out of Tokyo. It caught my eye with its aesthetic as I drove by and I felt compelled to stop and explore. As a photographer I take many photos that I don’t necessarily understand at the time. But I feel that they are like historical documents that hold their importance in their aesthetic. Hopefully to be seen and admired a long time in the future.
