This small cemetery, standing next to a church that was nearly a thousand years old, seemed haunted. Its ancient headstones bear names of families that still live in Kinsale. To stress the haunted nature of the place, I stood over the leaf-strewn slab of a collapsed tomb in the shadowed foreground, and using a wideangle converter lens on my G5, I add the context of the tilted, half buried tombstones emerging from the rich green grass just beyond. The vertical perspective of a wideangle lens, used in close, pulls the viewer into the subject, and indeed, into the grave itself. Scary stuff.
