i really like this shot. it would probably be my favorite of the cemetary photos. there's a sense of height in this photo, partially due to the pedestal nature of the mantle and partially due to the clouds in the background that seem compressed and close-by. i like how the woman is weeping into her wrap before what appears to be an urn, it tells a story. combined with the clouds closing in and seemingly wrapping around her, there's a very somber and ominous mood to this photo. this is the type of imagery i imagine would appear in the Constantine movie that's opening today, how timely. :)
