| It's funny how human society works: (trying to paraphrase Dawkins) the worst crime is killing, the highest honour is fighting. I wish a picture with this motive could convince me why fighting deserves the highest honours. This picture doesn't. |

| Good subject. Would perhaps be better if you went in closer to one of the headstones, with the others trailing off into the distance, filling the frame with headstones. |

You've done a nice job of capturing the rows & symmetry. Making the back top line of tombstones parallel with the top / bottom of the photo, and toning down the stark white of the markers (and if you could pick up some detail of the inscriptions as a bonus) would improve this shot. You might also consider cropping out some of the grass in the foreground and adding some sky. The other think that works against you here is the top line of the tombstones is just about the middle of the photo - typically you want such a strong horizontal line to be 1/3 from the top or from the bottom. It would even work to shift the photo down so you have top 1/3 trees, middle 1/3 tombstones, and bottom 1/3 grass.
Too quickly in the U.S. we forget that our freedom was bought and is kept at the highest cost. Thanks for the reminder. |

| I would have straighten the horizon and cropped off some of the foreground grass. |

| The horizontal line through the middle of this photo makes a potentially interesting shot a little flat. You also have "dead space" in the foreground (the grass in front of the tombstones). A change of angle would have helped. |
