There's quite a lot of noise in the sky, but I like this image a lot. Love the smaller, leaning cross in the background.
I really liked the reflections, but i am not so sure about the effects in this, the gradients between black and white look too severe, if you selected a region and looked at the histogram i bet it would look like a very steep sided mountain range with gaps in, ie at there is a lot of black, then a gap then a lot of mid, then a gap and a lot of white, but the bits in the middle dissapear, it makes it look kind of dirty to me, otherwise i like the pictre and subject very much.

What histories of tragic struggle with fortune and of defeat there are written in California! How many young men, for whom still fond hearts of sisters or mothers beat lovingly in vain, have fought the battle of life here unsuccesfully, and have died, as men know how to die, in solitude without a murmur or a groan.
-- Charles Loring Brace

learning photoshop notwithstanding ... I'd go B&W or sepia ... that drab ugly sky blows it for moi. I really like the shot and the location but (the big but), I'm not to happy with the composition. You really seem to be pushing the left side ... I'd crop on the right to at least center the cross ... the bush is of lesser importance ... the fact that you can see the branches says "uncared" you don't need to show all that much bush. What's going on behind the second smaller cross ... looks like some bad dodging on the bush? Sad to think after all this time that those people are still dead.
