Gone But Not Forgotten
I went for a walk around the area I am staying in Canada. It is a quiet little town. I love it. On my walk I stumbled across this neat little cemetery at the bottom of the hill I am living on. Like the town the cemetery is only small.
Walking through any cemetery is a little bit creepy. So when I approached the cemetery gate on this cold overcast morning I was a little bit apprehensive. I opened the rickety gate and started to make my way along one of the main pathways with gravestones on either side. Then……….. In flew a “murder” of Ravens. They came in and landed on the gravestones surrounding me, squawking/crowing at me as if to say get out of our territory. It sent shivers down my spine. Creepy experience.
After composing myself and deciding to ignore the Ravens I managed to take a few shots. It is an interesting place and i`m sure I will shoot there on a number of occasions.
Here is one from that morning….
I am working from an uncalibrated macbook so I am unsure if my image adjustments are what I want them to be. Hopefully get an external monitor sometime soonish.
holy crap man… i would have ran the hell out of there!!!… trying to click on the picture to make it bigger but cant seem to do it
Nice composition with the trees framing the scene. Who’s the dude in the photo?
Cheers Beau,
That “dude” is me
I framed the scene and felt like i could put a conceptual spin on it so I set the self timer and posed like a poser.
Clint, I must be doing something wrong when I upload my shots. I will look into it..

You look a bit worried in this photo Luke and now you have told the story I can understand why… haha.
Looking forward to more photos with great stories.
Thanks Peter
I thought it would have been yourself… Upon a second look I think it may look better if the picket fence was more horizontal. Hope you’re having a sweet time in Canada and taking a shit load of photos
