Highgate Cemetry

[Seanazz]

Spent Sunday afternoon in both sides of the cemetery. The light was very flat, no brooding clouds, just a very light grey sky.
Found it it difficult to bring anything out in PP. Thought I would post a few from the day.
It's a great place, look forward to the sun appearing at least once on my next visit.

Excellent. I like a good walk around a cemetery.

Are you aware of John Gay's work in Highgate?

Thanks, Steve. That book takes me back a few years. I had forgotten about it. It was a popular library item, was a regular on my pull list. Must see if the local has a a copy.

As is his book England Observed. Anyone who thinks they need new equipment to get better pictures should look at it and realise that he just used a Rolleiflex with its standard 75mm normal lens.
