Cemetery

London has many amazing, large Victorian cemeteries, planned and built as the city was expanding with great speed and there was a sudden need for new places to bury the dead. And the Victorians certainly knew how to build a memorial.

Kensal Green Cemetery in the north west of the city is beautiful, leafy, large, and packed with many famous Victorians. Last Sunday we went for a wander around in the drizzle, and armed with my Nikon D90, I took some shots. All the pictures have been processed with Silver Efex by Nik Software. They do a guided tour every Sunday, so we'll probably go back.

'Roid Week, Spring 2010 - Monday

I love 'Roid Week. It introduced me to so many amazing photographers in the two blasts last year, and the shots coming out so far are amazing as ever. Such a great, supportive, interested community. The only problem is there not being enough time to look at everything as much as I'd like.

Here are my two entries - two grand buildings in London, catching the evening light, captured on ATZ film.
