A cold winters day, early 2013.
I took myself and my camera off to
Abney Park Cemetery for a wander.
I love Abney, its a beautiful, overgrown wilderness full of scary men and cute goth kids and winding pathways and robins and graves with good names on them like HARRIETT and crows and crumbling angels and foxes and its a dream to photograph. I'm so glad I shot on black and white.
Abney Park Cemetery was the first non-demoninational cemetery in Europe, so its got a wonderful mix of graves and history. The war memorial is superb (not pictured here though) and its also one of the Magnificent Seven London cemeteries. I hope to visit all seven this year. I need to find a cemetery buddy though because this place was really creepy (in a good way) and I got followed by some strange men and had to leg it (don't be put off by this though - its totes amaze). I'm taking applications for buddies in the usual places.
