I love cemeteries.
For some people, cemeteries are places of dread. For me, they are places of wonderful quiet and peace. A place of resting, whatever your religion, if any. Memories wrapped in stone and tree shadows. A place to reflect, and wonder about life. Perhaps our lives are just perfect – loved ones all around, financial independence; maybe fame and fortune.
In the end, we all wind up here.

One life, one chance to feel good about it.

My rules for photography and art are very simple – I like it, or I don’t…

Thanks for visiting my folio :)
I certainly appreciate your taking time to view what I’ve been up to, and enjoy reading your comments.

    man Im getting worried about you trawling these grave yards. Beautiful image here. Sharp as a pin. Did you do anything here? The sky looks like it has been dropped in later? Good use of ambient light ?

    Everything original, including crop, Mick.
    Only adjustments are exposure/contrast and straightened the black-looking cross.

    Yes, I worry about me too ;)
