Art: Child's Gravestone at Lanercost Priory by Artist Shawn Marie Hardy
I visited Lanercost Priory in England in 2001 and was fortunate enough to find this old gravestone. Our guide said that based on the markings this is most likely a gravestone belonging to a young child. It is estimated that the stone is from the 1600's. It is covered with moss and lichen.

I captured this image on an overcast day using my Canon T-70 and 400 speed film. The lighting really makes the reds stand out. There is no color enhancing in this image and no filters or other enhancements were needed for correcting.
