That What Lurks Underground…

As the spooky season is coming upon us and hauntings will become the daily occurrences, it is interesting to see a WordPress Daily Prompt of Underground!

When we think of underground, there are a number of directions that our mind may take ranging from the literal of that which is below the surface to the possibly illicit and sinister, as it is hidden from the eye.

Whence am I?

In looking at this image, I ask you where your thoughts take you: is this statue recently uncovered by archaeologists or is it a more sinister apparition that has risen from the depths of our planet?  Or, for the Whovians, could this be a Weeping Angel?

Technical Details

This image was captured with a Canon EOS 5D MkII and EF 24-105mm f/5L lens.  Exposure settings were at 1/50 second and f/10 at 400 ISO.

  1. Reminds me of an old Victorian historical cemetery. There used to be one behind the chapel near our school. We would sneak over the fence and hang out there as a dare, reading the elegant headstones, imagining the story behind each.
    So to me this kinda looks pretty 🙂

    1. Those cemeteries have always attracted me as well; I love visiting them and checking out the old headstones. There are a couple of great ones in Boston that have very interesting themes on the headstones.

      Thank you for reading my blog!

  2. Yikes! Maybe I say that because the photo is a close-up shot. Makes me want to get back into photography with my old CANON AT-1. Great photo. Just discovered your blog via Bikurgurl and others I’ve been reading this morning.
