St Andrews Parish Church, Somerset

I appreciate the mood that these are conveying. I prefer the right one. IMO- the left one has too many hot spots...

Interesting effect; I like the way these work, but much prefer the bottom one (Close-up) as the headstones make a nice lead-in for the eye, and the other image seems just a bit too cluttered.

I like both images and the effect is interesting to me.

For me the first shot (with foliage on 3 sides) is the more interesting one though it needs a wee bit more work. I love the point of view in this shot (peering into a place from the bushes) I also really like the majority of tones here. The central part of the photo has an 'etching feel'.

For me some of the headstones are too white and could also use more sharpness. The sharpest elements in this shot seem to be the foliage. I would have done the reverse here - I would have focused on the headstones and let the foliage go soft. JMO.

I like shot 2 as well but there is a lack of sharpness throughout. I would like to have seen either the headstones or the front part of the church be really sharp.

I like the hint of colour in the foliage shot - I'm not sure it works in the other shot.

Hope that helps,

Marko

Very nice, I shoot lots of old churches and like what you have done to these.
