So sad it's not been kept up. I hate it when I see cemetaries around here in disrepair. Such a slap to those who are buried there, that after a full life they are so easily forgotten.
Anyway, I think a closer shot of one of the gravemarkers would be pretty neat. Maybe with a pretty dandelion along side. The first two shots don't capture my attention, though I guess you wanted it in perspective.
I like the third, since it shows what is there, but also the neglect.

Actually it is kept up surprisingly well for being in a shrinking suburban woods. No one sees it because it is not generally known. It represents a population of Jews who lived in this area now completely bereft of Jews. There is a huge fence around the plot. I used by monopod/walking stick to lift the camera over the fence to get this photo.
