Bronswood is my favourite cemetery in the area. Tucked away on a quiet side road, between Oak Brook and Hinsdale, it is shaded by numerous trees, with a brook running through it. The rules are lax compared to many modern cemeteries, so there are a variety of tombstones, as well as statues placed on grave sites. If you go at the right time, and are very quiet, you might even meet some deer close up!

Here's a few introductory shots of the place, photos taken summer of 2007. In an upcoming post, I'll focus more on the tombstones, some abandoned structures, and the deer.
