Artist's Description
Yesterday (15 Nov 2020) I went exploring the Nova Scotia side of the upper Bay of Fundy and visited two off-the-beaten path cemeteries, one well-maintained in Minudie, and this one, overgrown and with graves that looked like they were going to expel caskets from the ground at any time (must be the freeze thaw dynamics). This overgrown cemetery, in what would have been the community of Barronsfield, is only accessible in the autumn or winter because of thick growth now covering the cemetery. At one time this would have been a beautiful hill overlooking a river running into the bay but now someone has clearcut forests on both sides right to some of the graves, making the remaining trees susceptible to blow-down in the cemetery. It looks like most of the graves were pre-confederation, from the mid-1800s, . This monochrome image was shot in infrared.

About Murray Rudd
I am a photographic generalist, equally happy shooting animals in the wild, people in the city, or most anything in between, in either visible or infrared light. Join me on a grizzly bear photo safari at Bear Cave Mountain, in the northern Yukon, October 2026! All artwork (c) by Murray Rudd.

Thank you Constance. Even without infrared, this cemetery was one of the most eerie I have ever been in. It would have been such a beautiful spot for a cemetery at one time, back in the 1800s, but now it has been logged right to the border, past headstones in one spot - to see it clear cut all around it, so overgrown it is not even accessible when there is summer growth on the remaining bushes, and to have the ground getting ready to expel the coffins is really sad. Ironically there is a 'please respect the dead' sign up at the entrance.

wonderful. The infrared effect makes this look a bit eerie. L/F

This is truly amazing. I have taken many headstone shots. Never thought to do it in infrared.
Murray Rudd replied:
Thanks. I find that IR tends to bring out details in headstones, so much so that most times I shoot cemeteries (often!) I mainly use IR.

Thanks very much Mike. I'm half surprised there was no ghost turning up in the IR image - this was one spooky cemetery find!
