Springtime in the cemetery

I took a trip today to East Cleveland Township Cemetery, and it was beautiful.  There were beds of violets  flourishing everywhere, and a few of the graves had other flowers, like tulips, blooming.

I hope this photograph gives some concept of the thickness of the flowers on the ground.

Violets are one of my favorite flowers. I have never seen them in such proliferation.

I took a lot of wider shots than usual today to capture the flowers framing the grave markers.

I did take a few photos of just the flowers themselves.

The randomness of some of the bulb flowers like tulips makes me wonder if they were placed before some of the restoration efforts. Or maybe the flowers shifted over time.
