 the ribbon was printed on a transparency and placed in front of the tombstone before capture.

i cloned out the names, partially to keep it anonymous in respect for the dead, and partly b/c i wanted to get Don's name to be faintly present (i checked a lot of stones to get one that would work this way).

i'm glad a few people appreciated it.

I like it. Not sure if the blue ribbon is legal in adv editing, but if it is, nicely done.

Made me chuckle, good angle, I like the muted colours. Processing has made the image look a bit soft though. How did you get the blue ribbon on there, surely you didn't graffiti somebody's headstone?
