Gore Hill Cemetery Outing

Nine LCCP club members enjoyed a very pleasant photographic excursion to Gore Hill Cemetery early on Monday morning, the 19th November. The weather was perfect and the cemetery was a profusion of flowers that provided a magnificent yellow carpet for the ancient headstones.
The cemetery is heritage listed and is one of the oldest and most significant remaining cemeteries in metropolitan Sydney. Dating back to 1877 its layout, monuments and plants provide an abundance of photographic subject matter.
This was the first of the club’s weekday excursions following a request from members. The morning was rounded off with coffee at a nearby café, and so successful was the outing that the next weekday excursion was the subject of discussion.
