Admiring rich people's graves at the Graceland Cemetery and then it rained.

I was surfing through Flickr today, and came across this picture taken at Graceland Cemetery. I loved the colors, so I'm posting it here, along with the original uploader's comments, through the "blog this" feature.

Graceland Cemetery is a large Victorian-era cemetery located in the north side community area of Uptown, in the city of Chicago, Illinois, USA. Established in 1860, its main entrance is at Clark and Irving Park. The Sheridan stop on the Red Line is the nearest CTA "L" station.
The Cemetery is open to all to visit, and its architectural masterpieces, local history and beauty are the magnets that attract people to Graceland. While architects from the traditional to the father of skyscrapers and modern masters take center stage, you’ll find that Graceland also holds fascinating stories of private eyes and public figures, baseball and boxing greats, merchants and inventors and other unique individuals.
