After Halloween winds down, we shifted into a quieter, more reflective space with the Day of the Dead weekend. Hollywood Cemetery, with its rolling hills and historic monuments, offers the perfect spot to pause, remember loved ones, and reflect on the city’s layered history.

Photographer Kimberly Frost, along with publisher R. Anthony Harris, walked around and captured Hollywood’s soft evening light, bringing out the timeless quality of the grounds.
