OCOLOY Day 300: Serried Ranks

Gravestones in the churchyard of the beautiful Norfolk church of St. Peter and St. Paul at Heydon.

As usual, the image is SOOC and is part of my ongoing OCOLOY project - you can read more about it in my profile.

Suitably moody viewed on black...

Norfolk is a beautiful county and it does not disappoint in the bounty of interesting churches and graveyards. I really like the light in this. Will you make it into Norwich on your trip?

[Pat Knowles]

Very suitable edit in black & white, shows off those gravestones perfectly.

[Graeme Stevens]

[Sally Ings]

Very nice lighting and atmosphere

I dont know Richard if you have ever read Bill Bryson an American travel writer in 1995 he wrote a book called " Notes from a small island" , in which he travels around England extolling the beauty and uniqueness of the country and it's people, he has just published a follow up ""The road to Little Dribbling, well this is just the kind of place he would have loved....

A timely composition!

Lovely shot of the tombstones all in a row.

Deceptively simple.

[gloria jones]

Great light in this atmospheric capture

[Taffy]

Poignant to see the repetition of the shapes. I like your choice of tone as well.

[Richard Sayer]

@jack4john Hi John, yes Bill Bryson is a favourite of both Mrs S and me... we must get the new book, thanks for telling me about it.

[Richard Sayer]

@ukandie1 Hi Andie, we've driven through the city a couple of times and Mrs S has been shopping with my sister-in-law but I've stayed away this time. My brother and I spent the afternoon visiting historic Norfolk churches and the graveyard appealed to me in this one... might post a pic of the interior in another album

[Joan Robillard]

So well your wife went shopping in the city you played in a cemetery, Loved both shots.

[Walks @ 7]

Love your pov and lighting on this.

[Bill Fenske]

Cool pov

[Jay Butterfield]

nice POV and use of contrasts to set the mood

[Margo Sayer]

Suitably serene and calming.
