Re: Peso Tree and Stones
Thanks for the comment Bruce. I was actually trying for tree shots for the fall contest, but maybe the headstones in the shot take that away.?? Maybe i could crop and use this in another catagory, as i do like the line up of the stones.

Re: Peso Tree and Stones II
Well, if you are trying for trees, then they need to be the subject. This one, like the previous one, is about the headstone. Not that this is a bad shot, just that the trees are more of a framing element rather than the subject. -- Best regards, Bruce Tuesday, January 15, 2008, 5:21:46 AM, you wrote: DJB Another from the cemetery shoot yesterday.
