Shadows of Death

Veterans Memorial Cemetary view map

Taken at my grandfather's gravesite in the Florida Veteran's Memorial Cemetary in Palm Beach County, FL. My grandfather's is the 2nd stone from the front, on the left side of the center grave.

I processed the shot for the shadows and light, letting the sun along the sides of the stones outline the simple patterns and blending several layers in photoshop to darken the rest of the scene.

Sony DSC-T100
1/400s f/7.1 at 29.0mm iso80 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Was that actually shot at night, or "day for night" with an ND filter? Either way, haunting quality of light.
