Another autumnal offering

[Peter Roberts]

I make no apologies for some more seasonal shots. These where taken on the same occasion as my gardener shot and again in Kensal Green Cemetery. Autumn and cemeteries always seem to go well together in my opinion. Or perhaps that's my sense of morbidity at the closing of another year.






















As the cemetery borders the Grand Union Canal which loops round North London we continued our walk to stroll along it until the light started to fail. The low sun was picking out the frontage of this derelict building so I switched the 5D MkII to monochrome for a final shot. As there are posters mentioning Oktoberfest and Halloween it seems appropriate to include it.

A great set of shots Peter! I really like the second and third, each of which has its own frame included!

Quite interesting set. To my eyes the first one is the most outstanding.

Thanks, Gary. I always look out for 'self framed' shots. They don't always work as they can be tricky to meter.

Thanks, Gianluca. Here's another version from closer in and in monochrome. Another 'self framed' shot. The building is the Anglican Chapel and behind it are the colonnaded vaults.
