Location
This photo was taken at a graveyard in Niekerk, the Netherlands.Time
It was between 19.00 and 20.00, as there would be 2 minutes of silence at 20.00 on Remembrance Day in the Netherlands.Lighting
I wish I had been there a little bit later when it would have been a bit darker. Now it was broad daylight.Equipment
I used my Canon EOS 550D and my Tamron 18-200mm lens.Inspiration
I had the intention of creating some sort of 'creepy' atmosphere using the gravestones. This gravestone is broken, as you can see, and it also had some cobwebs attached to it, which made the scene perfect.Editing
I enhanced the clarity and I sharpened the part of the broken gravestone plus the cobwebs. I kept the colour of the stone, including the moss, but made everything else black & white.In my camera bag
The camera and lens mentioned above, plus an extra SD card and batteries.Feedback
To create a creepy vibe using gravestones, try to visit the graveyard at the right time of day where it is a bit darker outside than usual. At least, that's what I would do if I wanted to do something similar next time.
