Headstones

[beavens]

From one of my favorite places in Richmond, VA - Hollywood Cemetery. I was out there taking some headstone shots for a friend of mine who is a huge history buff, especially the Civil War.

Thanks for looking!

B&W is fitting for the stark scenes here. Your high contrast treatment fits the topic theme well here.

Some very striking work here Jeff.

These are very striking!!! Great headstone work Jeff. My favorites are #2 and the last one.

These are all really nice! Did you use supplementary lighting? I agree with Alan's comment, I like the use of contrast, it works great to isolate the stones and set them off of the background.

Thanks all!!

@Amy Earl Nope, all natural light later in the afternoon. So I was given a lot of shadowed areas to play with and that definitely helped with separation/contrast.

Cool, good use of the shadowy background. They came out great.
