This is another version of the cemetery in the Ghost Town of Terlingua, Texas. It's right on the Mexican border in Big Bend territory. Here is a link to location and some interesting History. << http://www.desertusa.com/mag07/nov07/terlingua.html >>

I have been staring at this image for some time now and do not know what I feel... Oh, all right, I know that I am interested and that I like it, but this is not enough for me. I would like to analyse it - just for myself. Probably need some more info... Not about the software and technical things but the facts, location, history etc. Will dig in the Wiki.
The crosses do look special... Compared this one with the previous one too. In one aspect I prefer the b/w - this white object [grave] in the centre...

The crosses are so prominent, Doug.
Looks like it could stand some TLC.
Good post.

The grounds keeper should be fired! The place is in shambles yet you've created a superb image Doug.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

The crosses are conspicuous and the whole scene has a somewhat pathetic appearance. I suppose the heavy stones were put on the graves to prevent animals digging.

Great lighting and vignetting of the scene, Doug. Nice work on this image.
