Do I ever hang around with live people?

This is a discussion on Do I ever hang around with live people? within the Architecture & Man Made (cities, buildings, roads, objects & abstracts) forums, part of the Show your photo (Color) - Landscape & Nature (flowers, mountains, storms etc.) category; yeah, sometimes, but I find them too noisy.

    yeah, sometimes, but I find them too noisy.

    Anyway, I hit a cemetery I've passed a zillion times. The light was semi-cooperative, but the humidity was rising and the sun was coming out so I beat it after a short time. Here's the result -

    I fairly raced over to this dead tree which had fallen across some graves. When I saw it in LR I knew I had to do a heavily tweaked B&W conversion.



    It almost never fails that when I home in on an interesting stone, it's a child's. Poor little Lucy.



    I call this one Angle of Repose after a terrific novel I just read.



    Anyway, sorry if you're sick of cemetery shots. I just keep going to them.

    I don't see that it's a problem unless you become a resident of one of these places. Cool shots.

    Well I'll feel right at home I suppose, not that I'm planning to join the ranks any time soon. I'm glad you liked the photos though, it's getting more and more difficult to do anything interesting or different with this subj. Will have to think.

    I like the set, well done. The last image in particular. It has a sense of foreboding to me.

    As far as having to "think" on them ... I don't think one has to think too much; personally I find observing that which IS is often enough. It will lead you to the right 'angle' on the matter. And you do have a keen eye for observation, no doubt about that.
