 Houston Memorial Cemetery on my way home from work. Not exactly what I envisioned, but I think it works nicely. Would like to have the grave markers more prominent, but none of those appealed to me as much as this one.

Still learning to shoot with the Oly PEN. Who ever put the video "ON" button right where your thumb would naturally rest needs to go back to the drawing board!

This is really good! I love the drama of the high contrast black and white. Definitely one of my top picks!

Beautiful contrejour. The structured nature and rhythm of the trees seem to echo that of the tombstones.

Lovely light. Excellent shadows. Wonderful tones. Truly remarkable clarity throughout the entire image. Ever single stone is razor sharp. Outstanding photo and certainly one of the best.
