 Photo taken shortly prior to remembrance sunday. Aim is to put across the idea of rest, and sacrifice (hence the selective desaturation of everything but red)

Other than that, looking to use the diagonals to take the eye "from here to eternity", but (happily?) it's not such a big cemetary.

nice colors and scene, would like more foreground bokeh though, this subject lends itself well.
