Sepia again with this picture taken in Tower Hamlets graveyard just opposite my flat in East London. It's an abandoned cemetery which is now a park - heck, they even call it "cemetery park". It's very romantic though - romantic as in poetry that is, not love romantic... Anyway, this park - cemetery, whatever - is really nice and peaceful (no joke intended). I don't think anybody living around here sees it as some kind of grim and scary place at all. People even get together quite often to clean it up, and classes come to "visit" the place.
I never feel sad when wandering through this graveyard, I just spend some time reading epitaphs and... well it makes you think. Good to be alive, innit? ;)
Modifications (used Nikon Capture instead of good old Photoshop for a change) : no cropping - sepia filter - contrast adjustment and there you go.

Negative feedback welcome - it's the best way to learn. Positive feedback also appreciated, of course - but only if deserved ;)
Constructive criticism is a compassionate attitude towards the person qualified for criticism. Having higher experience, gifts, respect, knowledge in specific field and being able to verbally convince at the same time, this person is intending to uplift the other person materially, morally, emotionally or spiritually. Hence the word constructive is used so that something is created or visible outcome generated rather than the opposite.
Love the light and color, well done :)

@Ina: Thanks :)
Excellent sepia image with great composition, subject is great. The highlights through the trees are just a touch too bright, IMHO
