Cemeteries are always a stopping point for my wife and I when we have time to stop. She̢۪s a history buff and I enjoy the photographic opportunities they offer. They do seem to bring a sense of peace and quite time to a busy reality. Nevada City and Harmony both have great historic cemeteries. They are both relatively close to you. This is a beautiful shot Kylie. Great color choice. You have captured the peace in this one. |

Love the detail, angle and tones. The blurred bit on the left tries to pull the eye though. |

I've been struggling with a cemetary project lately, and must say that I think this is a successful image. Your use of depth of field suggests to me an expanse of these plaques while retaining a macro perspective. It's a touch soft in the foreground, which I think is the only real distraction. The detail within DOF is excellent, as is the lighting. On its own, I'm not sure this shot will reach its potential. However, I believe it couls be the foundation for an outstanding photo essay, tritych, or portfolio. I encourage you to keep its momentum... |

Touching picture.
I love the DOF the lighting and the tones.
Personally I have a very big problem with cemeteries and such, but this picture actually made me think a while longer about it despite my personal rejection to it's subject.
For me, this makes a picture worth.
