Ominous Irish Cemetary
The Irish rains let up just enough for me to take this photo. My family and I went to Ireland for 3 weeks and I loved the cemetaries over there so much. I got out of the car and snapped 3 shots and got back in just before the downpour started again. This is in Wicklow area somewhere, I don’t remember exactly now. This was the very first photo that got me started in my current path of photography.It was taken in June 2003 and when I was showing them at work one of the ladies fell in love with it, so I framed it and it still hangs in my dining room. This picture was taken with my old HP digital camera and I don’t think has as good of a resolution as my Sony. This one is completely “as is”.
I would appreciate any feedback on what I could have done better in this pic. thanks

I would have probably gone for a lower angle for this one Rhonda as it would have been nice to have a silhouette of all the headstones against the dramatic sky but , I guess it would not have been practical given the state of the weather. Also I would avoid showing the names on the headstones as this, in my humble opinion is a slight distraction.

Points well taken, thank you so much. I never even thought about the names on the stones being a distraction. I totally appreciate your time looking at it and giving pointers.

Thank you, I have to say that the cemetaries were amazing over there. I think I took pics of every one I was able to :-)
