Down their Carved Names...
"Down their carved names the rain-drop ploughs” is the bleak coda to Thomas Hardy’s During Wind and Rain.
We are left burdened with the plain, cold finality of the inevitable anonymity that awaits us.
The caustic nature of Time will come to bear on us all.
This work, taken at sunset, captures headstones in silhouette, where the names are no longer visible, albeit temporarily, but the broken circle of one Celtic Cross hints at the permanent, irreversible erasure that awaits.
