Hi Richard
Beautifully captured. You did it justice by changing it to B&W. But now you have me intriqued! What do you mean by making the statement one of the most elaborate cemeteries you have seen?
I love walking into these graveyards looking for the oldest grave, clean it up and take some shots. (the cleaning part I do out of thanks and honor for allowing me to take these shots). I have taken one, two weekends ago dated back from 1864 with a huge tree that has overgrown the stone and now it seems like a living headstone.
Cheerio

her sad expression is quite beautiful. I love the use of b&w here and the background bokeh too. lovely!
