Recent results seem to accentuate your chosen subject and title. ;-)

Great conceptual leap, great find, for this challenge. Was one of my 10s - still makes me smile. :)

What a great piece of work this is, and I think the cemetary might have an extra grave for the stock market, the way its been lately.

Charmayne, what a GREAT photo! I absolutely love your urban style! You are so good at not losing ANY of the picturesque qualities of good photography in your depiction of urban life. Way to GO!

Feels like hell in the foreground, and the stock exchange building adds another dimension to "hell." Great rawness and the bare trees add greatly to the effect. This is a mix of two human elements (and many subelements thereof) that clash, in a good way. It's almost like life doesn't give respect to death.

Wow. Interesting shot. I think b/w was a good choice.

Is there really a cemetery there? That's amazing.

in my opinion...a ribbon winner

I didn't know there was a cemetary there... any graves from the crash era? That would have been hell all right. 9

Very nice image. Excellent job at giving the impression of hell

too bad about the trees in the way! did you try shooting from different perspectives maybe closer to the building to get them out of the way?

I actually love the sense of humour here. Nice tones. Slightly oversharpened it seems otherwise good composition. Love the title.
