One can certainly understand the silent contemplation - and the silence of absence of the deceased. The circles of the wreaths give added visual interest. It's minor but I do feel that the umbrella shouldn't be cropped by the edge of the frame. If it were completely included, it would feel more like she's 100% in this situation, in this little snapshot of time, instead that escaping umbrella is a link to what's outside the frame. I know that's weird but I think having the key subject wholly enclosed by the frame would benefit the strength of the message. |

the most origonal of the 'grave yard' shots in this challenge.. and ther were lots of them.. composition is good.. a little tighter depth of field would have added drama to the image with the background more out of focus.. nice effort.. |

The border is too thick, I think. The umbrella is cut off on the edge too. Otherwise, very nice tone. |

This photo is right on the mark with the theme. The bowed head and her attention say it all. My own personal taste though: border should have been left off or done in black. It has a greenish cast on my screen. DOF might have been more shallow focusing on her and the grave site. I immediately get the idea from what is in the foreground and don't need the details of the background. The very best of luck. You got a high rating from me.
I have returned to this shot three times looking for anything to give it even a higher rating. . . I've gone about as far as I can go with an 8. |

Nice photo, but a black border would be more appropriate. I would also like to see the whole umbrella |

I would like it better in color, but it is still a nice picture and should do very well |

Strong image but I find the other wreaths distracting |
