Challenge: Separation (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Location: Roswell, Georgia
Date: Feb 18, 2005
Aperture: 8.9
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/8
Date Uploaded: Feb 20, 2005

Roswell Cemetary. Cropped, Layered, Desaturated, Unsharp, Hues to get Sepia, Neat Image, Noise. Rough Day of shooting, didnt know any of the 4 who's tents I saw. Some time spent reflecting after shooting farwell message from a mother to her 18 year old son on a picture I did not use.

Originally was going B&W but the picture felt too heavy. Switched to Sepia to go for a bit more distance from the grim reality of the mechanism.

good idea but the photo is so dark it took me a while to figure out what you were trying to show us. I think that this was either to closely cropped or to dark. The veiwer has to spend too much time figuring out what this is a photo of to enjoy the photo itself.

Nice idea but the contrast in color and sharpnessis way too overpowering. makes the plowers look like they were just pasted onto the photo. Creative however. Good luck.

Very nice selective desaturation- but what is it we're looking at? I can't figure out what that thing in the background is. My first thought is a gravesite, but it's so strangely mechanical looking.

This photo confuses the heck out of me. Just don't see the relation between the flowers and the whatever it is in the background next to the tree. Forgetting that for a moment I think the composition is a bit tight.
