To anyone interested...
MaryO...in her comment knew what these darn headstone were...
"I'm guessing this is the back side of the markers at a military cemetery, where we only occasionally see the "wife of" on the back. That's always bothered me. At least this place allowed a personal note in addition to name and date, so there's something acknowledging the wife was a person."
Thanks for all the votes...in was a fun Challenge to watch....

I like this photo a lot but there is something about that bothers me. I've been looking at if for a couple of minutes and the only thing I can figure out is that the tombstones look kinda of like they were pasted onto the bcakground in a few spots. There is no real depth on some of the ones on the far right. Not sure what would cause this or how it could be fixed.

Oh, sorry, getting close to a rant. Back to the shot: good tones and you obviously hit an emotional point with me!
ok i think those matching unmarked headstones are even creepier than a normal cemetery scene... the gray tones are pretty nice, too bad there wasn't a more ominous sky. i wonder what a much lower angle would have done for this...
