Hard days work - UndertakerI had gone to visit the Old Christian Cemetery on an early Monday morning, with co-photographer Sandip, for one of our photo adventures. Our intension was to capture the rather eeriness of the place in the early morning sun light. But we were taken aback to see the stark reality of the place, of an undertaker or mortician digging up a grave. After we took some snaps of the cemetery, we came back to this person digging.
We were taking photos of his work, the silence of the situation was very disturbing. Maybe it was a job as usual for this person. But the setting was making all of us uneasy; uncomfortable thoughts in our minds! Without a word we exited from the place after a few snaps.
This time I was not scared of the place like at night last time, but I left with a different impression and feelings this time.

i feel cemetrys or other such places of disposal are in reality the calmest most peaceful of places but thanks to our feelings about death and the dead we tend to feel uncomfortable once there.
otherwise if we think about it, what could possibly harm us at such a place ??
