Default 10 Jan/365 - Cemetry pic in snow

The snow is beginning to melt now so I took my car out for the first time in 5 days and came across this cemetry. I liked the old grave stones. It was very peaceful.

Yes, old cemeteries are interesting. Your superb image of one in snow is exceptionally nice. Thanks for sharing.

Nice shot. Wonder what effect converting it to Black and White would have on it?

Nice shot indeed. Cemeteries are always interesting and peaceful places to take photographs, and they seem extra special in the snow. The B&W is my favorite too.

Nice shot, Rachael. There's something about a snow-covered cemetery. I don't know what it is...very serene, and even more peaceful than a bunch of cliche flowers everywhere. TFS
