Mono Monday St Johns Cemetery

Keeping with my habit of sharing mono Images each Monday today I will share some shots taken on a walk around St Johns Cemetery here in New Bedford on a foggy morning, which we have had a lot of recently, very foggy and overcast in the early morning, so I have headed out a bit later and been checking out some new spots and St Johns Cemetery I have driven past many times but this was the first time I went there and took a stroll and took photos.

Now these photos with the fog and my edits do come across as fairly dark and moody so I should say at this point, it is actually a beautifully maintained and laid out cemetery, and perhaps I will revisit it again on a nice day, or do some color edits for another post, but I do find cemeteries especially on a grey day do make for good mono shots, and I took a ton of photos here and in its sister cemetery on my visits there, so there may well be a few more Mono posts from visits to these cemeteries, but don't worry I will also find other images to edit in mono so all my Mono Monday posts wont be in cemeteries.

I am not sure how old this cemetery is, but its been around a long time, and has some interesting mausoleums and headstones

this view with the fresh greens did look nice in color but I wanted the focus to be more on the foggy feel and hence did this one in Mono

There is a little chapel in the cemetery, which you can see in the background of this next image, I will edit and share photos of it in a future post, it has a charm to it

This cemetery has a lot of Portuguesa buried here, whereas its sister cemetery has a lot of Irish, both are Catholic Church Cemeteries
