 A very foggy morning roaming around graveyards is not what I would call fun. In fact that in itself is rather dark.

A bit of cropping and some level adjustments made. Still getting to grips with the camera, in particular the issue of white balance and bracketing.

Nice diagonal lines. Probably meets challenge for most people. The image score affected by these factors: Contrast low, sky color weak, lightness i background trees is a distraction and the chopped down tree with a prominent position in the left foreground is a major distraction.

Ironic--a picture of a sunny day but it's still dark.

I like it. 9

Doesn't do much for me. However, a nice picture.
