I was inspired this week by the Anzac Day service so I decided to go back and photograph our local Cenotaph in Gosford which I think fits the theme this month very well.

Reading up on the Gosford Council website about details of the Cenotaph I found this very interesting:

"The Cenotaph memorial commemorating the fallen of both World Wars and subsequent engagements was first unveiled on Anzac Day 1924.
The cenotaph stands 17 feet high, and has a face aligned with each compass point.
It is built of Gosford freestone, and the cenotaph's edges, if continued into the air, will meet at a point. Here it is believed the souls of the fallen dwell."

I tried to capture an old time photo feel to the scene and so I used layering in Photoshop to achieve the effect I wanted. I didn't use any sort of plug-ins, just layering effects to give it the look of the era.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I feel privileged to present this to you.
