nice idea, like the titleing, b&w dead on, good color, nice duo tone, great dof, interesting angle, good comp, nice texture, good lines, overall a nice pix
Really like the mix of desat and colour in this shot. I think a closer crop on the left hand side may have made the overall impression more compelling.
I'm a little torn with this.. on one hand, I like what you've seen and are saying, but the desat seems to be just a little strong for me.. and I don't really like the lay-out of the gravestones.. If you'd found an angle where the stones were angled to lead into the tree, it could have been a much stronger compostion.
This is my favorite so far. One suggestion I have (just a suggestion I'm giving this a 10) would be cloning out some of dead area of the tree with the vibrant green leaves. However, no matter how intricate of a cloning job you do it would be evident in a large print.... it would have been convincing on the web. Great job!
I'm sitting here staring at this trying to decide if I like the desat or not. I know I like the shot, and the desat is not bad....just thinking that the highlights might be a bit blown. If they weren't so strikingly bright I would love this. The tree colors are beautiful. Perfect title.
I rarely like cemetary shots despite the fact I've been known to take them. I like that you decided to take it from behind the stones so no names are shown--it gives it a timeless and placeless (if you will) feel. The selective desaturation is so appropriate here. Nicely done!
