This comment is based on assumption alone. That said I'm not a fan of the shades you've chosen for your duo tone. I do, however, like that it's not the same ol' goldish gray so props for that. I also noticed that the focus is mostly on the church, displeasing to my personal tastes. I would have enjoyed it more had the focus been on the cross, with a more shallow DOF on the church and other bg elements. |

interesting shapes - I like the sky too. background to cross detracts a little from the shapes, maybe (though hard to see how that could be avoided). Would be interested in seeing this reshot with shallow DoF to soften the background, but enough to retain the shape of that interesting church. |

The two main elements here, the cross and the steeple/chapel, seem too closely juxtaposed to me. Moving sdlightly to the right might open this up a little more comfortably. This would laso help, perhaps, witht he unfortunate overlap of the foreground pedestal witht he background, jalf-round tombstone. There is considerable figure/ground merging where the cross tends to lose its right arm in the tree, the values are so similar. The sky seems unnaturally over-smoothed as well. Finally, I am a little bemused by the unfortunate phallic appearnace of that unusual steeple, but it is what it is I guess... For all of that this is a strong image and should do well. |

I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.
