I like the mood set here with the dark sky, high contrast, and desaturation. Great shot, the location is just perfect. BTW, thank you for your enthusiasm on my negative space entry.

Very heavily processed, but I like it. Excellent composition of the scene and the highlights on the tombstones really look great. Well done!

Pleasing for its simple desolate location and the colours. 8.

Very lonely mood in this photo, at least for me. I like the silhouette of the tree on the right.
