I guess right next to the Old Gaol in York, Maine was the perfect place for this cemetery to be situated. I asked a friend to review this pic for me and this answer is going to be my narrative for it was put so well.

"...The light that everyone says they see when they have a near-death experience is represented by the golden tree. The matter of factness of death in the tombstones; and finally, the reality: no matter how beautiful (the leaves), all things will die."
