 ANZAC memorial in Adelaide. Commemorates those that fell during the WW1 & WW2.
A place I consider a sacred place in Australia.

My interpretation of the pic is it's a gateway from the darkness to heaven, well that's what I was going for. It's my first challenge and I'm new to photography, so I'll see how I go!

Pic was taken just after midnight. Used Tif image, crop, applied neatimage, resize image, then save for web. I liked the colours etc the way they were so I didn't adjust the levels.

I look forward to your comments so that I can improve!

Dramatic; great lighting; I like it; matte it with a nice white inside black matte and ship this puppy!

Nice angle and lighting. Not sure if those are real people or statues in front. If they are real, I would have just included the kneeling woman, I like her outstretched hand. If they are statues, maybe a different angle so you didn't include the standing one.

I like the silohuette idea. Nice warm colors.
