Midmar Old Kirk

Aberdeenshire

I'd heard of the expression "pushing up the daisies" before
but never of "pushing up the snowdrops"....
but maybe that's too irreverend for a Sunday, in this ancient churchyard!

beautiful steles... love your angle!
Johnny JAG16-Mar-2009 19:31
It really works well in B&W.

I love the perspective and the B & W conversion allows you to concentrate on the structure of the scene.

Great angle and postprocessing.
It sounds morbid, but i like visiting cemeteries. Always so peaceful.

Well composed with the Snowdrops as a foreground interest. Nice dimension.

Gorgeous this contrast in subjects. Spring is new life combined with past time, lost life. BV

Some life in the dead ... eery setting!

Very nice, I love old graveyards. Meant of visit one today but
got sidetracked.
The snowdrops add interest to the foreground here.
Inga Morozoff15-Mar-2009 20:03
Nice find. I'm sure it's even prettier in colour.
