It looks as old as the cemetary. Wonderful composition and toning. I love the single vine reaching out toward the headstones. Another red x. :(

I wonder if any of the people buried in the cemetery sat on this bench as they pondered the passing of time....

I like the way the lone branch rests upon the bench's arm so delicately. The shape of the bench makes a nice composition here!

This conveys a strong feeling of ruined beauty. Really well composed shot.

Interesting mix of curves and straight lines. I like the fact the the ground is in focus between the boards. Nice sepia tones.
