Description
This little known graveyard is located on Atsena Otie Key, a cluster of islands off the coast Cedar Key in Levy County, Florida. Evidence of pre-Columbian habitation goes back to over 1000 BC. In 1865, Eberhard Faber built a pencil mill on Atena Otie Key of which little remains. The mill was wiped out by a hurricane in 1896. Few structures remain on the island, including this beautiful wrought ironwork surrounding cemetery which gravestones conspicuously dated before 1896.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
