Photography around churchyards is incredibly interesting and for some reason gets my black and white eyes engaged. Stonework is very textural and therefore loaded with tones. Hence black and white is good.
The Oxeye Daisies amused me, my dark sense of humour reminded me of the phrase “pushing up the daisies”. Is there a connection between that, old English perhaps and their presence in such places?
I’ve often seen the letters JHR on graves, thinking it said LHR which would either mean Left-hand side or London Heathrow. No, none of those! It’s Latin, “Jesus Hominum” something else. I believe it represents Jesus our saviour. If anyone knows, I’d be interested to know!
