Family Plot 1

This majestic little cemetery sits jauntily on the crest of a hill in Vernon County. I photographed this using a side arm attachment for my tripod in order to get the camera down to grass level… in fact, the camera was inverted so that I could get it even lower! A lovely couple came to photograph the same little plot as I, which is unprecedented for it is the middle of the night when I photograph. We were talking as I was packing my gear up and they were setting up to shoot. All of a sudden the sky literally lit up for 8 seconds or so. I watched in amazement as a bolide flew towards Viroqua, the cemetery was lit up as if it was daylight. It was one of only two bolides I have seen in my life.
