Very nice shot! Great perspective pic. Color is vividly wonderful. Framing - nice job! Focus - also looks good to me! Interest - strong emotional appeal, good job! I can't really tell you why this isn't a 10, it certainly is an extremely strong 9 and very likely a ribbon shot! I'm gonna stick with 9, but it sure is nice!!! Swash

Must be an 'official' cemetary, but obviously not Arlington. Where's this taken?

Very nicely composed. The tree on the right adds some nice framing, and the nice bright colours look very nice. It is a shame about the shadow of the tree over the front headstones, but the pattern that they all create looks nice and it shows perspective well. 9

Good perspective, but the photo is busy. It doesn't need all the trees to be there. Take a much smaller crop of the photo and you'll have something with loads of impact.

In fact, I just tried it out. I cropped it, enlarged it slightly, sharpened it and played a little with the colours, then added a border. Tell me what you think:

this is a lovely landscape.. the bright green and the deep blue in the sky offers a wonderful contrast in this shot.. there appears to be a small amount of noise in the sky area.. possibly from saturation... great shot :) - setzler

Comment by PTLParsons:
This is a beautiful photograph. Three things I especially like - the way you took the photo down the lines, appearing to go on forever; he shade of the big tree, giving the photo a touch of life rather than just beinging a photo; and the focus and depth to the lines of graves. The focus never stops and I think that adds so much to this, making the photo appear to go on to infinity with no end. This is an excellent composition with really good execution. Congratulations.
