I love the photo, but I feel you needed to put more of the head stone in

I like this photgraph ALOT! This tombstone is so unique. The Black & White just makes this picture so much better. It's so graphically moving. I love it! I hope you do well.

I think that if you have shown more of the grave stone that this would have worked better.

The "gothic" look of this is a good indication of the time period. The tones on the stone are really nice. A slight crop on the top would have removed some of the distracting bright spots.

Oh... I love these old early american tombstones...I loved going through the old cemetaries when I visited my grandfather in Plymouth Mass. The B & W is so nice as is the DOF and clarity...very nicely done. A favroite for sure.
