i took all of these photos with my iphone, in dappled sunlight for the most part.
the hazy saturated greens and sudden over exposures are very true to how the place felt and looked on the day.
i especially enjoyed capturing the orange cat stretched out on the tombstone and the stone cutter busy at work on a new headstone.
