Excellent details, everything is there, and we can read it very well.
A perfect composition, and I like the way you cropped the background, leaving just what is important here.
Good colours and lighting.
Fantastic and very interesting capture.

Good picture and symbol for Halloween !
But here, it's a real person who is buried, and we can magine his life a long time ago !
It's amazing to see graves dating from the mid-seventeenth century.
I like the carpet which compose autumn leaves as the details !
Colors and light give some more of strength to this beautiful picture !

SO FASCINATING!!! I remember when I was a little kid, being afraid of cemeteries. Then one time my mom took us to an old relative for a visit and while we were there we visited the nearby old cemetery. We were there for a while and I finally began to look around. I soon became interested in discovering how long some people had been buried and it became a sort of game to see if I could find the oldest tombstone. While I was at my little game, I began to appreciate the sizes and shapes of markers and stones, and I read the words, finding more and more meaning and understanding. By the time I left with my mom, I'd gained a whole new appreciation for cemeteries. I have always wanted to go with my camera but it's still on my "To Do" list, though there are several in the area which hold my interest for that day!
