Very interesting composition Mary... especially the wierd o spooky cross that appears and disappears. Nice natural framing as Doyle says too. Graveyards are realxing in a strange way. I like this.
Happy Holidays,
Michele~

I love the trees framing this scene... very well seen Mary.
The dark cross... is it the one I am seeing top left of shot.. where the tree branch passes under the leaves? Very interesting that it stands out so much & fits the theme of this photo so well... guess logic comes down to whether or not we believe in coincidence.
I love the contrast here... between darkness & light... as if we are traveling on the path to enlightenment when our bones are laid under the earth & all before then we find ourselves in the shadows.
Very well seen
Keep well Mary & keep bright x

Yes you're right Sue, it is the dark "cross" on the top left. Great to read your words about it. The idea of a "path to enlightenment" is so positive and poetic- thank-you.

Have to echo all the comments about the natural frame Mary...very well composed. And the mysterious cross...who needs a rational scientific explanation?...not me!
It is so great to see the sun shining somewhere...enjoy!

Excellent image and a very interesting story re the dark cross, Dear Mary!
I have had similar happen to me, when something so definite was not there "in reality" when i made the shot, and appeared when I had the film processed and saw the proof.
All the very vest to you for the Festive Season and wishing you every happiness and Warm Hugs,
Aniko :)
