Interesting take on the challenge. The blur on the background enhances the view. I may have also darkened the background a little more, dimmed it so to speak to enhance the focus even more. Wish there had been a spot of color or something to draw my eye. Right now the image has depth but nothing really to hold my attention. 6 - Good luck in the challenge!

The gaussian blur is a little too much for this image. The shadow on the right side cast by the tombstone should have been a little softer. An interesting concept. Maybe it would have been more effective as all BW instead of your selective desaturation.

not sure all the stuff on the left and right contribute to the scene, esp the house in the background. Did you try a tighter crop?

Perhaps a little more contrast would have made this really pop. I like it, but just looks a little flat.

I'm not sure if I like the coloring of this photo. Good idea, though.

The centered composition works here

The lighting here is harsh, causing the image to seem flat. A bump in contrast would help a bit. Also, another choice of composition to remove distracting items from the frame would have made a better image (house in bg).
