I think that this is a well excuted shot. I like the compostion and it tells a story, in my mind that someone is missed. B&W works very well here.

Thanks guys, i am working on the 'one shot' narrative.
The idea originally was just to stand over the grave in a manner that could be interpreted in one of 2 ways - Grief or Guilt. The original plan was to leave the viewer to create the story but it didn't seem to work, it was hard to get the pose correct when i was running back and forth with the 10 second timer!
As i had the book with me i went for the more loving shot of a grieving subject reading to the one he misses. The hood was left up to..... a) contradict sterotypes of the hooded youth b) hide my camera shy face!

Two more from the afternoon:

I think the composition in #1 works best... at least for me. I think you're on the spot with your PP :) Thanks for sharing.
