in the light amongst the headstones

This was taken in St Patricks Cemetery in Parramatta - it is the oldest Catholic cemetery in Australia, the earliest memorials dating from 1822 although the land was not granted until 1836.
I took my camera when I went to get my pink slip for the car with the idea of stopping here. I had the lensbaby with sweet 35 optic attached. I have wandered through before and will again.
So fantastically fabulous Annie!

Great processing- it has the feeling you often get looking at the old tombstones.
June 16th, 2015  
Very blurry cool:)

@graemestevens thought i saw you there ;-)
June 16th, 2015  
@annied Just kicking back and waiting...
June 16th, 2015  
@graemestevens oh I think you were scaring the inhabitants
June 16th, 2015  
@annied I was more likely to have been digging them up. Which reminds me, I must dig up that rabbit I buried last month...
June 16th, 2015  
@graemestevens well I am sure digging them up scared them hahahahahaha
June 16th, 2015  
@annied They were all grinning at me...
June 16th, 2015  
@graemestevens hahaha they are so old there I am sure they were glad to be free

@graemestevens the wire along the fence in today's is from there - got me some odd looks as people walked to work
June 16th, 2015  
@annied I was just looking at that shot, like it a lot. The last time I was in the cemetery here I was doing a double exposure in my gas mask...yeah, weird looks are cool
June 16th, 2015  
Again you make me stop and think....
June 16th, 2015  
@graemestevens they are indeed cool hahaha - I smiled at one bloke and he looked a bit confused
June 16th, 2015  
This does have a bit of a ghostly feel to it.
June 16th, 2015  
@annied to be fair, I'd probably freak out if you smiled at me as well...
June 16th, 2015  
Wow--wonderful effect! I love the soft misty feel of the focus--fav!
