Nice big block of red against the trees. Not much else to make me want to vote higher than a 5 though. Lighting is harsh, and the crop is a little tight, give hime a little room around him.
nice attempt. would have been more powerful if the rememberer (is that a word) were wearing black, or had head in hands, or something else to show emotion. the person doesn't show any connection to the headstones, other than a spatial relationship.
Hey. . .I know that awesome person :) Wonderful photo! I love the sentiment and the composition of the gravestones in the background. I even love the splash of bright red to add pop to the photo! Good luck. Certainly one of my favorites!
hmm, what to say ? the message is clear but the photo is too ordinary and plain ... maybe duotone or black and white ? maybe to show more of the surroundings ?
i don't know, i hope i helped a bit :-)
