'Residents' in the Mist

My Town Brentwood had a lot of MIST so as a 'Keen Snapper' I rushed out -- this time I chose my lovely 'Gift' ASAHI PENTAX Spotmatic F as I had not used it for a while -- I got HUGE GRAIN but I think it is 'Artistic' !
Some of my Friends from Brentwood Photo-Club are 'Residents' here .

Perfect venue for the mist. 'Not sure about Brentwood specifics, but some of the best statuary I've seen have been in England cemetaries. A spotmatic was what lit my fuse as a child on learning about photography. They still deliver the goods quite nicely.
 
Creepy! The grain works great here.
Nicely done.
Went to an old cemetery on the week end, thats were I got my bat shot, wish there was mist now.
Took some in hp5 120, might use Rodinal to get a bit more grain.
 
I was hoping to see a 'Voluptuous Young Lady Vampire ' in a skimpy white dress 'floating around' but only an old Cemetery Keeper -- maybe next time --
 
Although a very somber scene this is a wonderful image. I think the grain just adds to the somber or older look overall. I might crop in a tiny bit on the right to eliminate the tree branches there. Maybe the same on the left to keep the ending aspect ratio the same, but all good stuff.
