This is an eye capturing image almost hidden beneath the snow. Although, they seem forgotten, it is a thought provoking image that may create some change. Good focus, clarity and placement. The details and tone are well done.
Interesting to view.

Time runs fast. I guess the people who laid flowers there might have joined those beneath the old gravestones. Your photo is well focused and exposed and has good depth. I appreciate the realism of light and color. The white balance is accurate. The tight framing is adequate. The composition is balanced.

Interesting winter scenery and comment that are food for thought. The life we live is so much different from the lives those days. This is the kind of lonely result. The white snow is a nice blanket to keep them warm and for nice the scenery.

A great commentary for a very thought provoking scene. The fallen markers with the snow really makes the universal point that eventually memories of us will fade away and eventually disappear altogether. My guess is that in 5,000 years there will only be a handful of people still talking about us.

Great entry for the contest ~ Steve

A good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers a good view of those headstones. Wonder what caused them to fall over? Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

A very good entry for this contest, the fallen cross shaped gravestones are coveted in the fresh snow,
Well photographed with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is correct, the snow appears natural in this light .
Well composed and presented. Best wishes to you in this contest!

This is an unusual ca0ture and very nicely presented. We see the fresh snow on the old gravestones casting hues and shadows, there is a story line.....The gravestones were probably deliberately laid down. About 15/20 years ago sadly a young child was crushed by an old unsteady gravestone. The authorities were instructed by government to check every gravestone and if unsteady had to be laid down or repaired. As a consequence many graveyards have had their stones made safe by laying flat. Your photograph has good focus and use of light on white has worked well.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


beautiful & atmospheric picture of the Three leaning Gravestones in this Suffolk Graveyard lying under a blanket of fresh snow. that covers the names engraved in the stone of each Headstone remembered by their families who are possibly now lying in this or another Graveyard or their ashes scattered to the four winds over a Beauty spot or the ocean. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with care & reverence, superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.
Susan
