Pride, revisited

One final shot from my outing at the cemetery with the 55mm lens for the Pentax 67.

Camera: Pentax 67 SLR with 55mm SMC Pentax lens using Ilford 100 Delta Pro B&W film, developed in Rodinal 1:50

Song of the day: "Cut the Cord" by Charlotte Martin

Poem of the day:
"WHEN forty winters shall besiege thy brow
And dig deep trenches in thy beauty’s field,
Thy youth’s proud livery, so gaz’d on now,
Will be a tatter’d weed, of small worth held:
Then being ask’d, where all thy beauty lies,
Where all the treasure of thy lusty days,
To say, within thine own deep-sunken eyes,
Were an all-eating shame and thriftless praise.
How much more praise deserv’d thy beauty’s use,
If thou couldst answer ‘This fair child of mine
Shall sum my count, and make my old excuse,’
Proving his beauty by succession thine!
This were to be new made when thou art old,
And see thy blood warm when thou feel’st it cold."
- William Shakespeare, "When forty winters shall besiege thy brow"
