This is in a very old church yard in the Washburn valley Yorkshire, lots of old grave stones, I like looking around these places, [hope its not and omen] but just to see how old people lived hundreds of years ago, not many where lived to these two ages though, anyway got my camera as low to the ground as poss, set it to f22 and waited for a touch of sun to give shadows to the inscription, hope you can read it, seems that his Wife is buried in this grave yard but they must have forgot where

    Outstanding, monochrome tells the story much better than color would

    Excellent shot. The perspective is really cool and the B/W conversion finishes the shot beautifully.
