Highgate Cemetery

I went to Highgate Cemetery early in the year, but I just found these pictures now. The Cemetery's most famous permanent resident is Karl Marx (the photo is too blurry to really make out the features on his giant head). Around Marx are all kinds of socialist leaders (or at least devotees) who wanted to be buried quite literally in his shadow.

















I thought this other grave was a beautiful example for the possibilities of interfaith marriages. Each tradition respected but neither compromised.
