Hope Cemetery during snow storm Barre, VT

This is the first in a series of images that I call "Images on the edge". They all seem to have a mysterious quality to them. 
This was produced by simulating a pinhole camera using NIK Software's Silver Efex Pro. It began with an attempt to simultaneously bring out the tones in the falling snow and the monument, but was pleasantly surprised when I explored this pinhole technique. I never thought I would have any use for this effect, but have had more than a few pleasant surprises using it.
