What a SHOT! So emotive, so well lit. Contrast of youth with death, her white dress and everything else dark. Her barefoot, suggesting innocence to go with her youth ...

Congrats!

many things I could say about the image, but the too long title makes things too complicated and throws me off...

Good perspective. Having the girl barefooted is a very effective detail, I think, though I really couldn't verbalize why. It just looks "right." Also, I like that you have someone actually "exiting" what looks like a gravesite rather than just the grave site itself.

the exposure and b/w conversion with sepia are outstanding. I love the girl and how we can see her turning back to take the last look.

The subject in this photo is very intriguing, there could be several different meanings to it. I also like the fact that it is in black and white and the image is very clear.

neat idea, I wish she was more off to the right instead of being so centered. Her nice clean dress works well for contrast.

Great idea and has good emotive, especially with bare feet. I do feel that the composition is just a bit off, though.

Very nice interpretation. I like the contrast of youth against the deceased - sepia serves this well.

I like the processing and the comp...I just wish we could see just a little more of her face as it looks like just hair...very good image for the challenge, I hope you do well with this

I like the photo although the girl is a bit too centered, I might have cropped more off the right hand side. You made a mistake in your title, should be "in", not "is". Title is a bit long, first part of title might have been enough and fit the photo more.

Shakespeare, yes? I like the mood of the photo and think it fits the quote nicely.
