5 Stars! There is something very very haunting about this photo, strikes to the bone. Religious symbol, appearing uncared for, old, dead roots, and yet a hint of new life in the bright greenery. I like the tilt as well, slightly askew. Have seen many such photos, but this one speaks volumes of life, living, dying. Who was here? Why the neglect, are all kin gone? Raises many questions with one blink of the eye. Very nice shot,the blurring is also intriguing (whether intentional or not). Overall a very nice piece that grabs the eye and your attention. Very good!

vision- 5 stars. what i see, is not visual. what i see, skips my eyes and goes to my sense of feel. i feel this. the perspective of the capture communicates to me. it had depth, and blur, and is ominous. the subject matter being somewhat a mystery in itself, the unknowns.. are rendered visually more that effectively by this capture.
originality. 5 stars. it is not like i have nolt "seen" tombstones,
but never has one hauted, and talked to me. thisx piece has a life of its own. strage comment for a marker of the dead.
all the "unknowns" of death , and dying are rendered nonverbally , and very effectively. so i try to verbally render that which i am speechless about. your gift ttansends all language barriers. my words pail in comparison.
technique. 5 stars- i am not a photog, but i never saw , and was afftected by such a site. therefore i conclude that it is not the subject matter, but the presentation of it, that makes tis gifted. a masterpiece.
impact- 5 stars- i am sppechless, and affected so deeply by this. every time i see it. i ptefer to continue feeling this. it calls out to me, as if it has a life of its own. most "picture" freese a moment in time. it is quantum mechanics! but, this does not freese time. i has a life of its own, it goes on and on. a masterpiece.
