    How did you get the shadow of the cemetery sign ?
    Was that additional lighting?

    I can see a shadow under the eaves of the roof that looks like high angle moonlight.
    But the shadow of the sign isn't consistent with that light.

    NEAT color. I like how the the church looks, and the graves. That fence that blocks some of the graves is unfortunate though. Cut it down The pole in the front center of the church is also a distraction. The shot needs be sharper (why so soft? Did you use a tripod? Was the wind blowing??).

    Might make a great Halloween subject.

    It's a moody shot, I kinda like it Looks like headlights on the church sign but I think I like the look.

    the words across the front of the church is from taking a flash with a blue gel flashing in front of the gate,i wanted the gate visible but i didn't realize that the words would be cast at the front,then i took the gel flash raced over to the left side and flashed twice there,maybe thats why a shadow was created there,both flashes at different angles,i like the sky look and star trails, i really want to go back and reshoot,adding fog,and colored lights thru the windows,and getting a more crisp focus,i'm glad you like it ,the next attempt will be fabulous.
