Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject.
Composition - quite good
Technical Aspects - quite good
Meets Challenge - yes
Visual Impact / Originality - pretty good

I also submitted a graveyard photo. I spent 3 afternoons in 2 different cemetaries and discovered this is quite a difficult subject. ps: my photo isn't doing as well as I expected. Your shot sure fits the challenge but I can't quite figure out where to focus my eye. =4 - in my humble opinion - syamjonimi

The only thing wrong with this photo is the flag in the front detracts from the one in the background which would have set off the picture perfectly. Still I'll give it a 9. Great shot. Moody and works well in B&W

nice sense of dark and 'old' in this photo... the markers are so old here that the inscriptions are worn smooth :) this looks vaguely like an old cemetery near my home... good work :) - jmsetzler

Good subject. DOF is either too shallow for the all-sharp-everything's-the-subject, or too deep to emphasize a focal point. Overall good.

nice photo, i do find the composition a bit distracting, though. too many things to focus on, imo. ~mcmurma

black & white ruins this picture

I like this alot but i wish the picture were more clear, not so grainy. I wonder if this is due to the reduction in image size to fit on the web site.

this is cool its almost as if I see a ghost in the picture.

You have captured the oldness and the greyscale is right.

Nice use of black and white and a very appropriate subject. Well done.

Stunning B&W, it seems to "add to the feel" of the challenge. Great.
