    Makes an impression, but I think I would have rather you had either zoomed in or out a little. It also seems a morbid depiction of a baby theme Strange, alright - is it an old building or something?

    Its the base of a statue in a section of a local cemetery called "Baby-Land".

    This is quite an interesting picture that evokes thought with little subject matter. The lack of color, directional lighting and grittiness, give this an eerie feeling. It does makes me think of a grave marking. As was mentioned “Baby Land” only adds to the image. Good capture.

    Almo,

    All I have to say is SOMBRE

    To make it Excellent I think it needs just a tad more space around the left and right sides.
