"Sing me a song of a lad that is gone..." is a nice addition to Literary Adventure challenge. I personally had not seen this poem before, but I figured from the title it was of a young child. Not too bad of a placement, the upper 50% is always good.
I think you made an excellent choice with the black and white for this piece. I think using the tree to frame out the shot was a nice idea. On my screen the black looks a tad to dark. The glow on the horse is nice and I also like the include of the boat it gives more to the subject. This a very nice emotional piece, it grabs your attention with the deep contrast in the black and white. I like the white border it makes the image complete.
This was a really good piece, I look forward to your future entries.
Well done...very emotive shot. Good composition. Black and white is perfect for this scene. A little dark along the top but still fairly well balanced. Coupled with your choice of title and comes together fairly strong. Nice job!
Nice framing with the tree. I think the image could/should be a little sharper and wonder what the scene would look like with the horse rocking? The title does make me think of the 'lad' that is no more.
