First photo on this forum. Went to the cemetery and got some shots. Just looking for a little feedback if possible. Thanks!

Feedback??? depends really what you were going for, I just see an everyday image of a gravestone It looks well exposed but a little flat - may I ask what you were hoping to get feedback on?

Hi, first of all, welcome! I like this picture because it evokes a feeling of tranquility, which is the genius loci ...

Personally, I would have cropped the tree trunks on the left and right.

Looking forward to more pictures from you!

Hi
Welcome to TP.
It's difficult to give feedback sometimes when we dont know what you were trying to achieve with your image.
It does look a bit flat, but as said, it has a tranquil feel to it.

There are some many ways to interpret an image, and so many ways to edit .

Sometimes graves can look good if they're edited more dramatically, black & white even
Just to show I've had a 2 minute edit of your image and you can see how it changes the mood and feel etc.
Let me know if you want my edit removed.

as @justpix commented...
dont get bogged down in the dark side of churchyards
look at good detail of masonry etc and mood shots in the sunlight
?

Yes, I thought that only the OP could edit the title.
I have a few inages I can contribute, but I didn't want to hijack someone else's thread.

dead good thread

Ha Ha! Amusingly appropriate.

Is the word "Penton" another word for Flickr or 500px?

It's the name on the gravestone, so the surname/family name of who is buried there.
