Meeting the Challenge: Does this very well with the repition of the headstones.
Composition: I do think including the whole tree might have made this a bit better. I like the tree in there, however, as it tends to add a little interest into what could have been a rather monotonous gray photo.
Technical Quality: Very well executed, the colors seem to be very right and the focus and dof good. The lighting somehow lends a coldness to the photo, although there are shadows present so it doesn't look flat. The snow adds to the starkness of the cemetary as well.
Creativity: Good, wouldn't have thought of a cemetary for rhythm.
Conclusion: A nice photo, well exectuted, might have been composed a little differently. Good job.

Man, can I NOT pick the winners or what! I really liked this shot. Nicely done and very emotional (well, it could be a personal thing with my Dad dying recently and putting him to rest at a National Cemetary, too.)
Extremely great wonderful shot.
Fantastic!! Just good all over. I might of cut the tree out or used the whole tree...still it's a great shot...............love it.
