Cute "angles"

Is that one on the left obtuse? And the other is . . . . . . . right angle, of course.

Looks cool to me.

At first I was thinking that I would have liked to see sharpness through the entire photo but then I noticed that I liked the way the OOF foreground led my eyes straight to the headstone/angels.

Any interest in posting up the color pic as well? I always like to see both for some reason.

Nice conversion by the way. Channel mixer adjustment layer?

I hope my family would never select such creepy little being to sit atop my grave.

Even though I still like the B&W better, it's amazing because I never would have pictured the colors that were present in the color verison.

For instance, the pebbles or glass pieces in the angels' dish added to the grim/ominous feel of the B&W photo but seeing them in bright blue takes away from that feel.

I like what you did and I like the decision to convert to B&W. Often I think the color photo is better but you nailed it here with the B&W. Good work.

Thanks, your input is greatly appreciated!!!

I too like the B&W much better. Perhaps b&w is better suited for this type of shot too because of the subject... death.

I don't see myself visiting any cemetaries again any time soon so this will be a first and last :P

Like it ... best in B&W. By the way, I dropped by a captivating cemetery in LA somewhere .. they didn't allow photo's to be taken. Whats up with that? Is this common?
