Boy, very interesting. A lot to look at. Holds my interests well. Sun on horizon. Footsteps in the snow. Bowed head and bouquet. Tree silhouettes. Overall background excellent.
This is my favorite of the challenge and the only 10 I gave. Not only do I like the interpretation of the challenge theme, but there are little details all over the place that involve my mind and imagination. The mournful posture of the man and upside down flower bouquet barely being contained in his loose grip...resignation to his loss. The depth of the footprints...neither cold nor snow could keep him away. The irregular rows of tombstones and the array of trees in the background emphasizing the clearing in which this man's beloved's grave sits...somewhat apart from the others. The lack of color. The contrast between black and white. The sun fighting to be seen through the grey sky and leafless branches...hope? Yeah. I like this one a lot.
Gave lots of thought to doing a shot like this, and I see others did too - but this one is nice. I like the tone, the composition (like the sun peeking through the trees), and it fits the challenge well. I even like the Title.
not bad, but my eye is distracted by the graveston - there is no person on it, just a family name. so it appears to me that he is looking at an empty grave...sorry, but that is my first impression
