Description Every spring the fences surrounding the Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA are breached by the long rows of bushes bordering on Winton Road.

I try to catch the moment when the fresh green growth begins to pass the fence bars, as this is the most vibrant color in contrast, to whatever color the fence was last painted, whether green, and gray, and in some older sections a faded black.

Taken with my Hasselblad 500C using an 80mm F2.8 Zeiss Planar, on Kodak VPS color negative film.  This edition was taken in the early 2000s , but each year the colors re-appear making a beautiful contrast and reaffirmation of spring.

Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.  Once it's downloaded and made big, the spring colors punch out with force and glory.

My favorite color is green so every time you find something of interest, which I think is a story itself, I always gain an extra interest in reading your story about it. The two contrasts of the old and new is nicely done. Thanks for submitting to the group, .
