 I struggled with this challenge for a while. I mean, isn't every photo "still"?
But once I had the idea for the title, the photo really sprang to life.
I took this in a graveyard about 3 miles from my house. The graveyard is huge! And old. Some dating back to the 19th century.
My model is a good friend of mine who is just very photogenic. I'm sure I will be using her more in the future.
I'm not necessarily looking to win with this photo but I'm curious as to what people say about it. That's my favorite part. The comments!

All I did in post processing is:
Desaturation
Brightness/Contrast
Color Balance
Unsharp Mask
Image Size

Headstone looks kind of old for model, but a really good picture.

Nice technically but no real wow factor.
