On a recent trip to a graveyard nearby where I live, I took some photos that focused on the idea of Decay and the Gothic. The Gothic is all around us and I have learnt that studying this unit. I wanted to capture the sorrow but intimidation of the Gothic, which I feel I have really captured. In some images I came down to the level of the graves, as this makes them seem larger and daunting upon the viewer. I particularly like the close ups, as you can see every little detail in the markings on the graves, and the moss and algae that is slowly concealing them. The weather heightens the sorrow, as it conveys tears from the mourners.
