Rising Monument...

I took this shot in a graveyard in England.
Its the same graveyard as my other post refering to Draculas Grave.
This shot was taken just before the storm hit and I ran for cover to protect my camera.
Luckily I am always very aware of the weather and any changes, unluckily for the other tourists nearby they didn't see the approaching storm.
I quickly lightened the front of the monument to show the intricate carving.

Marty, this is a stricking photo, the detail on the monument (sp?) and then the beautiful sky behind it. In my opinion this one is even better then the others you posted, a definite keeper.

Hey Alpha, thanks...
I would love to post the original version, the details of the carving are stunning. I didnt realise just how good the carvings are until I zoomed into to the photo on my computer.
Cheers

Well even from here the detail is amazing, so the original must be something else. The mood and atmosphere in this shot, in short its just brilliant!
