 I have passed this cemetary on too many occasions, but have never actually gone inside. I did for this challenge and was rewarded with this amazing tree that seemed to cover and protect the dead below its branches.

This is my second go-around =) - Great location! I would like to see it cropped so that it does not slope down to the right like that. At first glance I did not like the hazy look, but after really looking at it I think I like it. I really like the tone you used and perfect contrast. Overall I think you did a great job! =)

Too soft focus for my taste

The soft focus, I guess, doesn't work for me

I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

I like the kinda fogginess feel of the shot. The tree looks outstanding.
