MOUNT JEROME JUNE 2016 - USED VOIGTLANDER 15mm LENS
Today was a beautiful sunny day so I decided to have a bit of fun with my new super-wide angle lens.
Mount Jerome Cemetery & Crematorium is located in Harold's Cross on the south side of Dublin. Since its foundation in 1836, it has witnessed over 300,000 burials. Originally an exclusively Protestant cemetery, Roman Catholics have also been buried there since the 1920s. Two of my Grandparents are buried here because they lived in the area.
