Composition - Touching tribute emorgan. General composition is ok. I'm not sure how fitting this is for the challenge, but I think it mostly fits. I'd like to see this picture from a few more feet back. I think that the tree shouldn't go to the end of the frame on the right. I like the sky color of this shot. I understand the tribute, but I don't think the general composition of this photo is very appealing to most people. There really isn't anything to WOW anyone. I don't mean any offense by this, it is just not something that I want to see. It's very sad, I know.
Photography - The picture is slightly out of focus. This was probably the biggest reason for the low score. The DOF looks good and the exposure was good, which isn't that easy to do when the sun is in that position. It could've used a little more dramatic lighting somehow. That is a difficult thing to do outside unless you have all day to spend waiting for just the right moment
Processing - You may have been able to sharpen this further with PS. Colors all look pretty true but it wouldn't hurt to boost the saturation a little.
Overall - This picture is unfortunately not terribly interesting to most viewers. It is a very real, sad, and emotional tribute to those people who were involved with this individual. It was not badly taken but could've been clearer. I wish I had something better to tell you emorgan, but this is what I'm seeing. Good luck in future challenges - Inspzil |

| This photo looks just a little bit blurry / grainy. Perhaps it was taken in fairly low light (it looks a little like ISO noise). Composition of the image is good, although the title isn't too obvious without knowing the full story(perhaps someone's age?). |

| i assume this tree was the sight of a fatal car accident, but it almost looks like this tree was the sight of some miracle and pilgrims have come and left religious artifacts at the sight of the sacred event. b&w might have added a somber effect that might have made the photo more powerful, also maybe a little more empty space to the left (if possible) to create a void and also add to the image of loss. |

| The contrast and lighting is harsh, and focus is off. However, it is a great subject! Cub |

| This tugs at the ole heart strings. We see too many of these road signs anymore. I'd like to see more make it to 10. This is a great photo all the way around. I'll give it a 9. |
