 I stumbled across this headstone a while back its actually in the background of one of my first challenge entries. Anyhow I've been saving it for some future time just didn't know how I was going to use it. Well I figured with all the Is DPC dying threads and angst back and forth I figured now was a prime time to go shoot it and enter it..and what better challenge than this one with so much MEH feelings...anyhow the main purpose of this shot is NOT to make a statement one way or another but rather to simply see what kinda comments it will generate. My intent is not to exacerbate the situation merely to have a little fun with it and hopefully make people realize that this site is what you make it. Anyhow with out further rambling on, the question is..


Will this shot and title generate comments?
the Answer I assume is Yes.

The title of course helps in my quest for the answer to be yes...and I assume that assumptions both ways will run rampant..

Are we concerned about the leaning memorial to Langdon? I think we are.

That certainly is some symbolism.

I feel like the question is 'Is DPC dying' and the answer is implied as 'yes'. Maybe not far wrong judging by a lot of the forum talk recently, I hope not though! I like how the subject fills the frame, nice focus; a more shallow DOF would improve this for me as the tree is a little distracting.

Answer: No, the dates haven't been engraved yet.
Question: Is Langdon dead?

Nice image, keeping distractions to a minimum.
