Interesting angle. I like the way the tree is reaching towards the sky.

This is my second go-around =) - I really like your creativity in taking a different perspective. However, this picture just doesn't stand out to me. Maybe if the tombs looked more interesting or if you zoomed in on just a few. Or if the tree could have been make to stand out more. I really can't say. But overall, I really like your idea and take on the challenge.

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.

If the tree wasn't there this would be a lot better.

Nice idea but the light just isnt interesting enough to make this shot work.

Unusual perspective. A bit busy with little compositional relief. Feels like a bit more saturation would have brought it to life, so to speak.
