Very powerful photograph! Just makes me think of desolation (a lonely existence after live). Great use of the sky, really adds to the whole atmosphere of the photo. Crossroads, I̢۪m not sure that title works for me but it̢۪s about the photo and that̢۪s high marks from me. This must be shot in Europe as here we don̢۪t see graves sites like that. The only thing that I might have changed is a little more crop on the right hand side to take out the triangle shape that̢۪s a little distracting.

So glad that some folks aren't afraid to use negative space. I like the comp. The subject's a little dark, not showing much detail. The little triangle on the side is a bummer.

consider cropping the sky some ...

Well, once you get past the punny title...Its a really good shot. Nice contrast, nice angle, dynamic, clear, and I like the negative space.

i would have liked it more with a tighter crop
11/22/2004 06:20:56 AM
Very interesting... that isn't in Heywood is it :P

Well done!

Nice job with the tombstones and perspective here. I'm sure all the negative space on the top is there for a reason, but I guess I don't share your vision. but still a 6

I like the space given topside and great tones.
11/20/2004 03:52:08 PM
Dramatic use of empty space -- great job!
11/19/2004 09:57:02 AM
I think there is way too much sky, but a good picture.

Great use of "white" space... but the subject is .....boring or not of interest, IMO. Also what is the hint of something there on the right border? Still giving you a 5.

i see color in the sky, why?
11/17/2004 07:24:22 PM
too much blank sky

Don't quite understand the tite (unless crossroads as in roads of crosses). Nice use of negitive space, love the fade from white to black.

The big sky really helps thi spicture.
11/17/2004 03:35:21 AM
There is and object to the right that is a bit didstracting, but other then that great photo
11/17/2004 01:50:42 AM
i like the photo, but why so much space on the upper half?
11/16/2004 09:49:11 PM
Very nice photo but it has too much space at the top. Cropping would help.

Too much air for my taste
