Portrait Day at Green-Wood Cemetery
November 2, 2019
After some errands I decided the light was too perfect to resist going to Green-Wood Cemetery. This being only the second time photographing the cemetery using manual settings, I gave myself the assignment of taking lady portraits. Close up and intimate on their grief.
The cemetery was far too busy on this bright, beautiful day, messing with my solitude and contemplation. How am I supposed to absorb all this sadness having to greet those I pass pleasantly? Don’t mess with my catharsis, people!
Sorrow is so annoying. Does she have my shape face? I think so!
This looks like a Roberta.
The secret agent angel and her determined chin.
I feel like I have never seen her before! But she’s right by a bunch of angels I have seen many times by the Fort Hamilton Parkway entrance. This cemetery is truly magical.

This is the face of Azrael.
Ma girl. It’s hard to get a shot of her I haven’t taken before.
I have to run, Green-Wood. I’ll be back soon.
