Nunhead Cemetery

 Last Saturday (17th May) there was an Open Day at the Nunhead cemetery. I'd wanted to go to this cemetery for a while as I live relatively near Nunhead and it is one of London's Magnificent Seven victorian Cemeteries. The cemetery was very busy with lots of little stalls, people eating ice creams and children with jars on bug hunts. It was a lovely atmosphere and the weather was glorious. My favourite part was the visiting birds of prey. Jack and I both had photos taken with the owls (we love owls!!). I loved stroking the little barn owls soft feathered belly. We went on a tour of the crypt which was dank and dark and enjoyed the music in the open roofed chapel- it was a lovely day

 The first photo is one I took of a woman holding a little bird. There were alot of people in victorian dress and in the cemetery surroundings they dressed the part. I layered the poster over the photo to remember the day/event.
