Sandy, I'm back for a second comment. This shot could be used to demonstrate so many things about good photography. First, there's that strong horizon line that is nicely off-center vertically. Then, there are the patterns in the graves that you caught so well, and at such a nice angle instead of face-on. I also really like the contrast between the hard-edged, manmade gravestones and the soft, organic shapes of the trees. And finally, there's the light, the glorious light!

I felt that a grayish color, or by using a yellow-black duotone would have potrayed the mood of the photo better. However I am just a new bie..so I might be wrong...

This is very nice, the lighting and exposure are spot on for a late day shot. The coloring is perfect for a cemetary photo.
