i'm not sure what i should be looking at in this pic. is the tree or the memorial the main subject? But then again, i'm not sure what you were going for. perhaps another angle/position would have been better, imho. keep shooting, Melissa! (c:,'
The exposure on the monuement is poor and there is just too much tree for good framing. I'd try a better angle and a polarizer or warming filter to boost the sky and saturation.
