Thank you so much. All the elements came together this day and I was able to get the kind of photograph I wanted. I had been waiting months for a foggy morning to shoot and finally Thanksgiving morning I got my wish.

Thanks. I wanted a more monotone look, but not completely. I've been experimenting with different tones and tinting, and I feel like the pieces I've come up with that have this tonal range work well.

You are welcome.
Just wondering if you've heard it- there's a song by a band named Lullacry- "Don't touch the flame"
Your screen name made me think of it. ^^

I have been dying (no pun intended) to shoot in this cemetery on a foggy day. I waited. And waited. Then finally this past Thanksgiving morning I looked outside and it was foggy, so I rushed out to take some photos. The fog was starting to lift when I got there, but I still managed to get some useful images. I think this is my personal fave of the shoot.

There's another cemetery here in town that I want to get out to. The nice thing about this one is it's like five minutes from home, so it's a convenient place to shoot as well as visually interesting.

This is wonderfully framed! Although... it could have been positioned to the left a bit more, so the statue is in the center. Nevertheless, the atmosphere conveyed is brilliant and ... you get a great sense of age as well.

touch-the-flame In reply to 3wyl [2009-12-03 14:51:53 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much. I actually prefer the statue a bit off-center. If the statue were more centered I think it would command the attention, as if it were the primary subject of the image. Really what I'm trying to convey is mood more than anything, and hopefully I've achieved that.
