In ignorance I stood

I made a trip up to Bells Rapids in the Swan Valley in June 2015. After the usual water shots I went to have a look round the All Saints church graveyard. First visit ever to the location. One particular scene caught my eye. The light on the tree and fenced graves below. So I took the shot. Now going through archived images, it stood out again. So I have processed it. I have literally just Googled the name of Henry Morely on the Australia Google and found this:

I did not have a clue who he was and I always read names on gravestones. Who knew? So tonight I am educated and some what bemused.

They don't breed 'em like that any more! What an eye-opening account.

I find it fascinating to take a picture of an object that is linked to person unknown and later do some research into their history.
