Guest )-( Posted September 8, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 8, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hardster, MarkP and myself did a bit of a late afternoon photowalk around Waverley Cemetery back in May. Here's a thread to share some images from what proved a nice opportunity to meet some forum members and to enjoy a glorious still Winter sunset. A little bit on Waverley Cemetery itself... It's located on cliffs just South of Bronte beach in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs looking East across the Pacific Ocean. The Cemetery has always been a 'private' self-funded one raising income from burial/maintenance fees, so tends to have some grander gravestones, statues, crypts etc. dating right back to its 1877 opening. It's in a real million billion dollar spot overlooking some of Sydney's most celebrated beaches, including Bondi's golden crescent. However the cemetery itself is in a constant need of repair/in fundraising mode as it doesn't generate any excess income. I'm not aware of any celebrated photographers buried here (yet ), author Henry Lawson is probably the most well known resident. Welcome, dear visitor!

fotografr Posted September 8, 2016 Share #3 Posted September 8, 2016 I always wondered where the Creature From The Black Lagoon was buried. The last image answered that question. Very nice. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkP Posted September 18, 2016 Share #10 Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) Thanks guys, good idea! I'm aware many people find cemetery photos cliched but I don't. Waverly Cemetery is close to where I live so I've been photographing there on and off for some four years or so. Many of you would recall that I've posted photos from the cemetery here in the past.

digbyhp Posted September 19, 2016 Share #18 Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Great series Mark. I particularly like the second B&W one - I think that's the four-pillared cupola at the northern end? That's a favourite one of mine there, but didn't think to capture it the way you have. Edited September 19, 2016 by digbyhp 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
