Green-Wood Cemetery

Sherry Felix

I felt inspired to revisit some old photographs I took of Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn NY back in July 2008 and convert them to black and white. I am careful of which images I convert to black and white. It has to be for a reason. Black and white creates moods, enhances structure and texture. In this case photos taken on a sunny colorful day become something dark and spooky in black and white.

    These are great, and b/w really works so well in these. Much creepier and intense 🙂
