For Sale. Baby shoes. Never worn.

Critique by Silver Fox
Good depth of field in the photo. Itâs on a different angle than you normally see in a photograph and it works for this gravestone photograph although I would like to have seen the focus on the entire image instead of being mis-focused on the âagedâ and focusing on the 9 months onwards part of the stone.
I like the colours as shown in your photograph, the mossy green of age and neglect, however, I donât like to see the brightness of your [flash] just below the âaâ and âgâ on the stone, on the white chip.
The visual impact was very strong on some of the viewers, as one can read from the comments below, and I agree with them. I often spend a rainy afternoon in old graveyards reading from old stones and wondering what it would be like to lose a child who was only months old. Heart breaking, indeed . . .
Your photography shows good imagination and creativeness and I look forward to seeing more of your work in the coming weeks and months ahead.
Regards,
Ed

| The angle works. The focus could have been better across the image. |

would have been better to show the entire gravestone head-on |

| One of the few shots that effectively portrays emotion without having a person in the shot. The title acts as an exclamation point to the shot. Nice work. 7 |
