Definitely fits the challenge. Should've done much better IMO though but 19 out of 215 is darn good! :D

One of my favorites ... I imagine that I would have preferred color but I'll bow to the photographers eye on this one (8)

I like the color scheme and textures, although I don't really get it... it's kind of just a coincidence instead of serendipity.

That says it all doesn't it.

Excellent capture of a very difficult topic. Perhaps a little too much orange, I'd like the sepia to be a little more muted. Good job.

Good catch - nice seeing. Sepia works well with tis.

Great find, I'm not sure I like the sepia tone though.

What a fun shot. I always enjoy finding little sentences, fun names or coincidences in cemeteries. I like your choice of duotone and exposure/dof. The composition feels slightly off to me, I think I'd like to see the "getting" stone off to the left just slightly, but I recognize that there were limitations based on the fact that you didn't place these tombstones. Fits the challenge as well.

Interesting interpretation. Nice dof...

Heh... quality and humor. Nice.

Very cool -- this really truely captures my perception of the topic! Nice image. I was going to suggest techniques to make the rear stone sharper, but on reflection, it doesn't really need it, and might compete too much with the foreground image. Top 10 for sure!

LOL. this is a 10. Excellent. Thank you for a pic that doesn't have money in an odd place. This IS great vision and persistence on your part. Thank you.

Funny! And they say in the threads that cemetarys don't make for good photos! I do think you could have lowered the point of view to exclude some of the grass and bring the subjects closer together, though. Sepia tone isn't my favorite picture element, it seems a bit overused in general in DPC, but in this pic it does help to unify the whole--B&W might have done the same.

Good idea. Like the sepia a lot. 7.

Wow, what a powerful photo. And beautifully executed. Great use of color. Nice DOF. This picture really is worth a thousand words.

This is truly serendipity to happen across this how very odd. I absolutely love it. Great representation of the challenge. Thank you for submitting this. :)

Good find. I like the light and you did a good job of fitting the two into the same image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This firts more in out of place, but I guess the discovery of it is quite Serendip. :)
