Highgate Cemetery

Two of the pics I took in Highgate Cemetery.

2 or 3 times a year I treat myself to a day out in London and often come home with 100 pics of trees.

I like tree shots myself. These look very atmospheric, Dave. Love the second especially. Never been to Highgate, though I've heard a lot about it. Looks like I need to visit.

Excellent shots Dave. Seems odd doesn't it? Going into London and then taking pictures of trees. Glad you did though.

The last time I was there the East Cemetery was free entry but now they charge. But it's not near as interesting as the West. The West has stunning architecture but you can only enter on a guided tour.
Beautiful greenery in the first shot Dave with that little memorial nesting at the bottom. Incredible how the ivy branches is strangling the headstone in the second shot. Two good shots.

Yes Rob, the West Cemetery is an essential visit and I'm certain your Merril will capture great images there with you on the shutter. Highgate is one of the so called magnificent seven cemeteries in London. Tons on the internet.

Thanks. We have a few good ones in Edinburgh. Here's a link to a few shots I made in my local, Dean Cemetery: http://500px.com/RobMacKillop/sets/dean_cemetery_edinburgh#

Dave I've done this myself. Nice photo's, like the treatment you have given them.

You most definitely have Rob. Fantastic and eerie mood to most of those shots. Beautifully processed.

Thank you all.

Yes, it was £3 entry to the East Cemetery. Next door to it is Waterlow Park, worth a look if you are in the area.
