Your choices of the foggy morning, cemetery, and Tri-X, combined with your abilities made for a great combination!

Well, if someone decided to mark my grave with a statue, I'd prefer it to be a statue of my favorite car (my 72 MGB) or a nicely chiselled much thinner version of me!
Ha-Ha, Pat

Thanks for the positive responses, joecichjr, PATography, Bbarn and my neighbor judyjuul. By the way Judy, were your shots taken at the cemetery around the corner from me on Wallingford Rd.?

That reminds me of my last landlord before I took the plunge into home ownership. He was about 80 years old but he had business cards made with a picture of himself when he was in his 20s or 30s.

How about the "thinner" you behind the wheel of your 72 MGB with your camera around your neck or on the passenger seat? 
Now THAT sounds perfect

But of course! Unless I commission it before my time is up, I'd never know what the finished product looked like

That's funny. I have also hear of, and seen pictures of, people buried in their cars or alongside them.

These are some re-runs but I've processed them differently. This is a family, very old, cemetery in a nearby town. It sits on a hill in the middle of a pasture on a dairy farm. The cows no longer graze - all indoor and mechanized. The site overlooks Maine's western mountains and off into the White Mountains of NH. The cemetery is no longer kept up and in some ways, that is what attracts me to it, along with the elaborate fencing. Downloads are much clearer.
