Cemetery Snowdrops (+PiPs)

Taken in the cemetery of St Mary's church in Buriton, Hampshire. I think I probably got these images just in time as some of the snowdrops are starting to die down.

This is quite heavily cropped to get rid of a lot of distracting stuff, so best viewed large if you have time. There are a couple of PiPs as well.

You've composed this well, Keith; not only with the snowdrops but also with the array of crosses. Great stuff, sir.

Really beautiful Keith, and even more so viewed large. Cemeteries are a great source for pictures of flowers and memorial stones, as you show us here. Both crosses are beautifully captured and enhanced by the snowdrops at their feet. Three superb shots.

There are not many snowdrops where my parents are buried but in a week or so, the cemetery will be covered in daffodils.

Keith Burton replied to Rosalyn Hilborne:

Glad you like these ones Rosa.............this cemetery was very unkempt (so good for wildflowers), but quite difficult to get a shot that wasn't full of distractions.

We actually stopped to feed the ducks in the adjacent duck pond.........so a lucky find really.
