Life and Death: Retake

[FanBoy]

This is a good local shot, Rick. It suggests longevity.

I like the composition in this retake but prefer the sky of the first.

Nice... I looked at the original and this was worth the reshoot. The right amount of contrast for the subject, keeping the cross as a focal point with the sky as the background.

Thanks FB, Yeah, I had broken gray skies and clouds in the first, and pure blue sky in the second...I can't win
I actually liked the mood of the tombstone with the gray, cloudy sky.
