Shot at a 5 second exposure to bring out as much detail in the cross as possible without bringing out all the detail in the buildings behind. I wish they weren't there, would've helped quite a bit.

I'm the model, set it on autotimer and took of running to get set heh.

I like the simplicity of this, in that it appears to be in a yard or residence as opposed to a church. Almost would prefer the person not there, or a little more in shadow perhaps.

I like this--it's just a little too dark for me.

Simple and heartfelt but maybe a little grainy (maybe the B&W conversion?) Moody pic though.

Great crop but too dark in middle and on the bottom.

Nicely put together, but the praying person in the foreground comes over as idiot-obvious to me, sorry.

Image is a bit dull (needs brightening up and contrast). House seems tilted to the left.

An evokative image.

Stirring, and emotional.

A little too dark. I would have liked to see more detail

Idea is great.. composition is nice.. B&W was a good thought but needs more contrast.. -

It is hard to tell what is in background and image mage looks flat to me. I like the concept though.
