I never realized you could really make an interesting photo by making it a negative image, so this is totally uncharted territory for me. I don't even know what makes a good one or a bad one. But, I was playing around with old photos to see how they looked, and thought one like this had the greatest impact of any of the others, so I went and reshot the scene for this challenge.
It would be so awesome if it was as well received as my other cemetery shot. ..but. . .hmmmm. . .I doubt it will be.

Ooooh, those tombstones look spooky like this! I didn't vote in the challenge so missed your shot - just coming by now to peek at my favorite photographer's entry :-) Congratulations on a well-deserved great placement, Sandy! The lines are beautiful and I can imagine that the non-inverted image is equally as stunning as this one.
This image works so well as a negative. The composition is wonderful! Everything is in just the right perspective and proportion to the whole scene. Well done!
Lovely and kind eery at the same time! Great subject manner. I remember thinking that I had seen this cemetary somewhere ... now I know where. Like you, I never knew a negative image could look so good.
A little to bland for my taste, I would have liked this shot better if there was someone standing somewhere but I like the tones in this image, got a 6 from me.
Darn you, Here goes my ribbon. This is a spectacular negative. One of the best that I have seen so far. BRAVO!!! The exposure is absolutely bulseye. I like that the sky went completely black with no clouds. It really off sets the beauty of the treas. 9
I love effect the negative aspect gives this photograph. The composition of this is perfect. I love how the trees bring life back into a place that displays death. Very Nice!!
This has to be my "absolute" favorite, as this "negitive" style image, has made the trees look like my favorite flowering trees of all time, the beautiful Jacarandas. Even the grass looks a carpet of fallen Jacaranda flowering petals. I LOVE this image. Definately a "10" from me.and also into my favorites as well.
