Berries living among the dead

Jono · Feb 21, 2009

On a prowl of a very old cemetry today for another project & came back with this shot. 2 versions of it, one less colourful. Personally I prefer no1 myself. Let me know what you think, and what improvements you would suggest as my skills are still very much in their infancy!

I agree with you that #1 is the best. the green in the second shot doesn't look natural.

Agreed. Also the duller (not sure if that's really the word I'm looking for...) colors add to the "cemetery" feel for me. A little more DOF (at least to the end of the branches?) would add to the shot also IMO.
