Dead Cross, broken amongst the grass

Graveyard, old cross gravestone in grass

Even the graveyards of Ireland are looking green, colourful and lush at this time of year.

Here an old gravestone has been broken, the dead cross section placed against the rest of the grave as long grass and wild flowers grow in the warm, dry summer.

Ireland is looking particularly colourful this summer as warm weather bathes the country in sunshine and heat.
