Sort of says more "Octagon" than "Triangle to me, albeit I can see implied triangles throughout. I still like it though.

You have gotten the exposure just right with detail in lights and shadows.

A good subject for black and white. I might check out our cemetery - a thought which had already occurred to me, but this tells me that it's probably a good idea.

Did you ever wonder how they calibrated the first sundial?
The shading is good in this, keeping the shadow detail in the pointer is nice.

Sooo, that's got to be around 1pm

Nice composition and settings, nothing burned in this photo, even middle of the day under bright sunlight... and that's the idea ;)

High contrast like this makes it tricky to shoot light colored flowers and to keep the detail in the flowers without "darking out" the leaves. A deep green filter when shooting would bring the leaves up and the flower down in levels, allowing you to keep all the details in the flower without blowing out anywhere in the image. It's an old school trick from the silver and acetic acid days of photography.
This is very good for no processing, SFC. (straight from the camera)

Medium DOF and the right shutter speed to show the action at the bloom mean a lot in this image. Well done.
