yeah, you'll have to trust me that the details weren't great to look at. The darkness is better. :)

It wouldn't be the great shot it is without the darkness.

A very sad image that brings back quite a few memories for me. Underrated, but then again, it would be.

This is way too dark, at least on my screen. I can't figure out what I am looking at.

Great scene and the water has an eerie hellish feel to it. Darks are very dark, but it works for the effect. Steeple/pinnacle in the background is a good touch.

great photo but I can't see how this is even closely related to the subject, sorry...too much of a stretch. Great photo though :)

I wish this was a little less heavy on the shadows...hard to tell what the photo is trying to say.

I love the darkness to this image. It's like the black hole.
