After Life -- Streatham Cemetary
The Four Seasons by Jonathan Clark
Photos with Flash: roll your cursor over the picture or you may miss a surprise.
My fave: the wonderfully creepy 1st Autumn photo.

Uhm, I think this is a double or maybe even a triple post. But it is really nice work.

Sorry. Searched for Streatham and "Jonathan Clark." Woo hoo! My first deletion!

They are amazing photographs - in a spine-chilling I am not sleeping for a long time of way. Very high quality double post.

I still can't find the original posting and am considering challenging you all to some sort of Meta-Duel for having impuned my im-peck-able honor ;-)

I'm positive it's a double or triple, but I can't find it either (via Google), which suggests to me that whoever posted it earlier came up with one of those oh-so-clever post titles that gives no clue what's being linked to. This is why it helps to be a tad less clever, folks. You Too Can Prevent Double Posts!

I searched under the title "four seasons" and found it posted on September 13, and before that, on August 28th.

Your honor has officially been pecked. If it makes you feel any better, I've never even tried a front page post; I'm just a hater.

It may be a triple, but the photographs are just so beautiful that I like to be reminded of the site. It's just so peaceful...it pleases me, so even if the post gets deleted, I'm glad I was reminded...perhaps this time I'll remember to book mark it...

I find searching the url (link to search, may take a min) rather than words is a very good way to find double posts. Though it probably is not perfect, I would feel more confident that the page has not been posted, even under a mysterious description.

I am not sure if this is a double post, but I know I've seen one of these before. It had big-eyed angel peeing.

Beautiful, subtle integration of flash and photography.

I do believe that the Jonathan Clark (the creator) has done some work to some of the photographs in the past few weeks, notably the third Winter photo. I don't recall it doing either of the things it does (blink and smile) when I last looked at them.
Beautiful photographs, none the less, with excellent subtle effects to accompany it.

The thing that makes it even more amazing to me is that I work in Streatham, just off the high street, and it is a real shit-hole - endless fried chicken outlets, charity shops and and really scary nightclub called Caesars. Streatham High Street is one of the most polluted in London, which is going some. Oh, and the lampposts have recently taken to warning you not to take your mobile phone out unless you get mugged. The contrast with the beauty of the linked site could hardly be more pronounced...
