Found it "The past is never dead. It’s not even past. All of us labor in webs spun long before we were born, webs of heredity and environment, of desire and consequence, of history and eternity."
I think "preservation" of these remnants, in place, is important. Digital images (using currently available tools ~ AI etc.) are too easily faked and can't communicate scale. I think context is important. Even the monuments glorifying Confederates in the US Civil War, (many installed long after the fact) with proper context, can be instructive for future generations.
We trod the dust of our ancestors' bones. Your images are exquisite!
Like your use of reflection and living people in the foreground. I think framing like this can help accentuate the relevance (or irrelevance) of these sites today. Past is prologue.
Lovely series. The past isn’t even past, to (mis)quote Faulkner.
Thanks Glen.

Context is key - I agree.
