Very nice! I really like the cool tones of this image. It looks really crowded in there, looks like you found a really good spot for this photo.

Very interesting light, by far not as dull and sad as our cemeteries. Thanks for the info about color adjustment. -Gerald

Good job with that old troublesome white on white. Yvonne

Nice composition, there must be many choices.

Thanks all. Mary Ann, I did desaturate the blue and cyan to -8. The rest I added +8. theFly

Very, very crisp and unforgiving lighting, like city of the dead should be

I like the shot like it is, but might have fit the theme better had you over-exposed the sky. - Tom

Did you use some desat here? I don't remember the light in New Orleans being this white in August. Interesting shot with all those sun-bleached tombs. --Mary Anne

I like the colors, or lack of them, in this and the angle of the shot, using the tombs to frame the image. ~Sharon
