These were taken in broad daylight but i have PP'ed them to try and give them the feel that they were taken at night and with a kind of spooky feel to them.

Do you think i was successful?
If not how could i make them better?

Not for me Jamie. I think they would look better if you had taken them at night with a full moon casting some eerie shadows. Or with some strategically placed off camera flash.

Cheers, John

Very atmospheric image. It certainly sets a mood. I doubt that the residents would object too much to you taking pics of their tombs. I know, if it was me I would be tickled pink! :lol: :lol: :lol:

One of my favourite subjects would have to be tombstones (maybe because I am close to one :wink: ) I like these shots but would actually prefer to see the front of them. Always remember that back views of famous people means nothing :lol:

They certainly have a spooky feel for me, 1st one does it for me more than the second. The second one seems to have a bit of light halo'ing (is that a word?) around the urn thing...
