Description
My brother in law passed away this week at the age of 63. He was a wonderful man with a great education but preferred to grow Christmas Trees on their 200 ac. Oregon farm. When I put my photos on my computer to edit & this came up, I burst into tears at the sight of my now widowed sister following her husband's casket to it's final resting place on a cold & misty Fall morning. It's not a perfect photo but the feeling of it needed to be shared.

Ann, Passed this image up too many times, its here has a greenlight. I think you have the best composition of any image I have seen, the but is the white post on the right. This is a photographers dream a image that won't let you go. The woman is the point of control. The guards hold you, the group trys too run off but you come back to the woman in black. My 2 cents.

I agree with aldersm. It is very hard to concentrate on the picture when you are emotinally involved. I hope that you, your sister and your family will find peace in your hearts.
This picture does show feelings.
