  9. The various vertical, layered structures largely contribute to the super interesting image composition. I would certainly enter this cemetery and take a closer look – camera included.

  11. Great to see you post a mono Doug--very cool! I love the framing and the stark contrast between the stone and the darker ironworks.

    Loving your shifting monikers by the way! :-)
