Sinking Springs Cemetary

Why is it that cemetery pictures look best in black and white. This picture of these civil war era headstones was taken in the Sinking Springs Cemetery in downtown Abingdon.

It's a 3-exposure bracket (-2, 0, +2), processed in Lightroom, HDR Efex Pro, and CS5. A bit of extra de-saturation gives it that cemetery 'feel'.

This one intrigued me because it is the marker for Daniel Trigg who was in the Confederate States Navy.

More Barn

I took this drive-by of a barn on my way to work.

It's the first processed picture taken with my new lens. I think it's going to work out just fine .
