I used Adobe Image Ready to adjust the contrast a bit. Lighting was horrible that day. But it was 7am-ish

A visit from the Critique Club :)

A very interesting photo. I think the biggest problem here is the lack of primary subject. I'm not sure exactly what the emphasis is. Are you emphasizing the withered grave stones or some other aspect of the photograph?

I like the exposure. It's dead on. Perhaps composition could be a bit better but that could be just because you have so much in the photo.

Not so much the fear of death, but more that the stones have no names and no faces anymore. This is where I want to be buried actually.

nice image. I guess if you fear death it could be a despair photo, this rather looks like a place I wouldn't mind being buried in. Your thoughts?

Nice, very nice. Your subjects are great! The only thing that I wood have prefered was that there was a bit more saturation in the shot. Unfortunately this was probably out of your hands because there appears to be an over cast on that day. nicely done

This cemetary is really something else! I would crop out the sky at the top as it's a bit distracting.

I love this shot, where did you find a place like this? I think the photo would look even better if it were cropped off a little above the fence.

I love the composition and framing of this shot! It's rather unfortunate the colors are so dull and washed out. Might have been better in B&W? I don't know. Never the less, I think you have a good eye for framing. 7/10

Really cool place and shot. No sense of despair for me, though. Sorry.

Although the colors are good, this might have been stronger in sepia tone. The composition is good, but a bit dark on the right with the tree. Nice shot.
