Remembered

The Camera Club headed to the Veterans Cemetery yesterday. I was teaching how there are so many POV to take pictures that change how it is seen. You can take head on, of right from the side or diagonal. You can include the flags our you can spot something special like the red flowers and add a pop of color. The cemetery is perfect for demonstrating the fact that most scenes offer different POV and you have to experiment with them to see which you really like. What we didn't like was how squishy the ground was. We thought sometimes we might sink right in. MUD SEASON,

Fabulous capture Joan, I would to have lessons with you. Fav

[Joan Robillard]

@ludwigsdiana I think you do fabulous on your own.

[Sheralee S]

I think this is fantastic Joan! I really like how some of the headstones are warm coloured and some are cool. I think your composition is perfect placing the red flowers where you have amidst all the repetition. Big fav.

[Margo Sayer]

Some years ago we visited the graves of the Fallen in Normandy. This reminds me of how much they moved me...and may such sentiments stay with me for the duration of my life.

[Margaret Brown]

A very nice capture and the flowers make the shot

I really like this POV, and the contrast of grass and snow.

[Peter H]

I've toured many of these in France, they never fail to move me, and yes, there are lots of different ways of capturing the mood.

[Denise Wood]

Amazing capture :)

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Excellent place for a photo lesson and you did exactly what you taught as well. Excellent pov and very moving.

[Graham Harcombe]

Beautiful pathos!

[Tunia McClure]

Its hard to get down on your belly when the ground is squishy.

[KWind]

A powerful image!

[Jane Pittenger]

I really,like the pov you chose and the flowers and flag drawing the eye from the marvelous repeating shapes

[Kahsia]

Really nicely composed.

[Milanie]

Hope they all picked up something from your example - wonderful pov - the cross is so clear in each headstone and the light and colors work together so well.

[Dinah Pinkston]

Nice composition and pov!

[Joan Robillard]

@tunia My days of getting down on my belly are gone by.

[Rob Z]

Your photo is a wonderful example of what you were explaining.
