Superb atmosphere in this shot! I love the contrast and that special post processing. Almost like an illustration...for maybe a book. (;
Thanks for checking out my portfolio! Cheers....Martin |

| I can't believe I didn't comment on this during the challenge. It is composed so well. It reminds me of the not so famous painting by Claude Monet "The Magpie" with a single black bird in the snow. The rows of tombstones create a linear quality and the filter just adds to the sad lonesome mood. Not a bad placement, considering the number of entries. |

I love crows :)
I recently read a book and some experiments on their intelligence... its amazing how smart they are and hardly anyone gives them credit for it.
One crow for sorrow
Two crows for mirth
three crows a wedding
four crows a birth
five crows for silver and
six crows for gold
seven crows a secret, not to be told
eight crows for heaven
nine crows for hell
ten crows are the devil himself |

| Beautiful shot. Love the blue tone, the lines of the graves and the crow right in the center. Very effective. |

| What a nice, evocative image. Good choice of the blue. It creates a feeling of desolate solitude that one would expect to find in a cemetery. I'm seeing some artifacts, but that's the only thing I can find wrong with this shot. Great job. |

| Lots of lovely allegorical possibilities here. I do like the processing with the blue/black tone. Great composition/opportunism, but even better you knew what you were seeing and exactly how to capture and present it. 8 |

| I think a cool title for your picture would have been Nevermore. Like what the raven said in Edgar A. Poe's poem - The Raven. |

| I love the strong contrast to bring out the crow on the snow, the fog, and the toning you have done here. 10 and favorite. |

| Excellent scene and good usage of duotone. However, I'd have cropped a bit off the top (and maybe the bottom too), and held back on whatever postprocessing caused the overall mottled look. |

| Azwesome find. I really think your purple tone is fitting for the mood. I like the solitary black crow in the snow. |

| the snow here really adds to the blanched, high contrast feel here - the foggy distance makes it just amazing ... I like the way the contrast makes me want no more contrast. yeah that's right! |

this is a great capture, you should have adjusted the horizon to make it level
and centered the crow more, he's a little to the left. otherwise great! |

| "Quoth the raven, 'Nevermore'." Edgar Allen Poe This is cold, chilling, ominous, a reminder of our mortality, cause to pause and reflect. On top of all that, it is well composed and beautifully processed. The converging headstones could go on for... eternity. 10 |
