Great interpretation of this challenge, from the viewpoint, to the toning (that touch of white left in the flower petals) to the light from "above".

Excellent perspective but I wonder what the colored version was like. Very nice focus too!

Good idea. Nice composition.

I like the summery feel of the flowers with the sun flare and the faded colors, and they would have looked nice even without the tombstone. If you like the tombstone in the shot, I think it might need a bit more light on it so we can automatically recognize it.

I appreciate you being innovative, perhaps a little less grass and more headstone would have been better. The lens flare also bothers me.

Please don't tell me you tried to capture the view out of the coffin?

Took me a minute to realize that was a tombstone; I thought it was a hooded figure at first. I like the little hint of color in the flowers to subtle emphasize their liveness.

close (?) background is distracting...

I'm loving this shot. It's very creative and very inspiring.

Cool sepia/brown tones, some nice sun rays and good bokeh. The flowers look pretty and the tombstone.... well, what better place to be put to rest?

It's gorgeous. Well done you.

Spooky good! Great tones, only wish the OOF blades of grass weren't so prevalent in the lower left.

Good idea for the challenge. I wish it had a bit more contrast and was less blurred - more in focus.

good use of the grass and dasies in the foreground. I like the angle
