St. Bartholomew’s Church burial ground, Horley, Surrey, UK

In September, 2012 on my way back from a pub, heading to my hotel nearby, I took a
shortcut passing through the St. Bartholomew’s Church burial ground/Horley, Surrey, UK/.
It was about midnight and there was a fool moon lighting the grave stones and monuments.
They were looking like hundred of ghosts. It was something out of this world, a little bit
scary and creeping, a little bit exiting and heart beating. I found out, it is a great
scene for photos, but I had no taken my camera. Then I promised myself, someday I will
return back.

In November, 2016, I had to change my flights at London Gatwick Airport, so I booked the
same hotel and even the lack of a moon light, here is the result. Images are taken in “B”
mode and a torch was used as a light brush.
