gazdi (Csaba Bobák) added a critique 1 year ago:

Well, a commonly seen implementation of a military cemetery, still not the most usual one with the V-patterns. The cross is placed very well, in your face, which emphasizes the conveyed feeling. So does the high contrast. The cloud-diffused lighting is a two-sided thing, first it hides the textures but on the other hand it goes well with the feeling mentioned. Overall, I like this photo. Only one small thing to add: should you moved a bit to the right, the trees in the background would have given a dark aura the the top of the cross, strenghtening its shape and thus its power.

thanks for the comment, gazdi. i did not notice the trees you were referring too, you're probably right. i really should be more mindful of the details that will add more character to the photo. thanks again!

Nice image, not much to say. I might crop some off the top to focus more on the cross.

Also blurring the background may have added to the impact of the foreground cross popping out at you.

Yes, I also like the way that you have picked out one cross in front with the sea of them behind. Good use of B&W to emphasise shape and tone.

I like it too. Perhaps less sky and a little more ground to empathize where it all finishes.
