This is the cemetary at the Taos Pueblo in Taos, New Mexico. The original San Geronimo church stood here, it was built around 1619. The church was reconstructed in 1706, it was destroyed during an uprising between the Native Americans & US Army in 1847 leaving only the bell tower. It started being used as a cemetary then - the people killed during the uprising were buried there. Residents of the Pueblo are still buried there today.

No wonder it looked familiar, I visited this cemetery 11 years ago. Well worth visiting this Pueblo. The mountains behind it really add to it.

What a great location and shot. The bell in the tower is in a good position and the lite on the crosses as well. Bumped up on second view 9.
