I love the colors. It's so deep and mournful. I'm not sure if morbid was the look you were going for, but I like it. <3 Favorite.

this is awesome! great contrast and levels. i like the duotone, too. your work is the kind of things i would expect to see in huge frames in important museums. the depth of field is just right; i really like how the x in the wood is repeated on the other side of the gate and how the barbed wire is all bent and contrasting to the thick wood. i know you wanted advanced critique, but i'm not that advanced, nor do i have much critique. it's a little centered vertically, but other than that, i can't think of a thing. :thumbs up:

wow, thank you for choosing this as one of your favorites! and well about the look. when i take a picture i just look for potential and whatever people see in it is good with me.

wow a museum. a girl can dream. thanks so much for your kind words. and about the advanced critique i am not to good at that either so i don't mind. i'm not that advanced either. ya know i think i just might get an art account so i can send prints to myself and then jst put them all over my room museuem stlyle. that would be so awesome don't ya think?

haha yeaaaah... sounds like a good plan to me then you could take pictures of your photos hanging on the wall and make up some elaborate story of this really important place they're hanging
