Bald Knob Cemetery........

......during the snow storm we had in February, something about a snow storm and a cemetery that sparks a photo opportunity in me, I hope ya'all don't think that ghoulish..... it always reminds me of an old country song, "long Black Vail"...

    Well seen and captured, with the snow still swirling. I particularly like the "creepy" atmosphere provided by the gnarly tree and the leaning headstones nearby.
    It puts me in the mind of Camille Saint-Saens' "Danse Macabre." Black and white was a fine choice for this image.
    Compliments,
    Steve

    The black stone covered by white snow...
    a white linen of snow covering the rest...
    the coldness creeps up and I feel it!
    great work regards Berthold

    The BW works very well here to give the stillness of the scene. Dark, cold and still.
    Regards,

    A very atmospheric shot Den, especially with the snow clinging to those headstones.
