Bigelow Chapel 2

[click image to enlarge]

I've posted a little different angle of the Bigelow Chapel,today. If you read yesterday's post you will know that this amazing Gothic Revival structure was made with Quincy granite and is located in the Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge. I like this monochrome view with the man sitting on the bench to the right for scale.

If you like black and white images, make sure to visit Monochrome Monday here.

I think the monochrome really lends to the sense of serenity this image conveys. For those coming after, please click to enlarge to see how truly beautiful this shot is.

I think I like the mono version of the chapel better, though it still looks like something one would see in a horror movie.

This tiger swallowtail butterfly was a delight to see pollinating the phlox bed along my driveway.
