    Hm... different type of photo. My first impression is that the cropping is too tight. I wish I could read what it says (having a hard time doing that..). A lot of strong contrasts here. Like I said - different.

    GB, I couldn't read the writing on the tombstones even from close up. The date of death is 1839, and that was probably the most readable part. They've been so weathered, it was nearly impossible. As far as the cropping, if I leave more room, then there's a big area where the washed out sky is. It's a case of damned if I do, damned if I don't. Thanks for looking and for your comments.
