From the outside looking in (my peace and tranquillity)

This shot was taken inside a cemetry chapel window ..so let's hope the theme is open to one's own interpretation of peace and tranquillity , no black and white conversion as i wanted the colour to highlight or add to the ambience of peace and tranquillity and let's face it ,,,,it is a eternal resting place for most of us.

You know I did consider a cemetery shot, but I thought it would be too depressing and final for it to fit the theme. Saying that, I do like your shot, especially the colour. The only thing that seems to detract from the theme for me is that it looks a bit crowded. Sorry, I just don't feel tranquil when there's a lot around.

NIce enough shot but personally I've never found cemetarys to be particularly peacefull or tranquil...

Just a personal take on the theme ,some people may find peace and tranquillity some will not.

A peacful picture, I am glad you kept the colour.

Sorry but I have to agree with Bazman. A scene with fewer headstones maybe, but this is just too busy a shot for it to say tranquil for me.

...does that make it "Dead Busy" then ?

I kind of agree with the previous comments. I think I would have gone for a shot of single headstone, focusing on some flowers in the foreground, but that's just me.

I like the subject matter but it is a little too busy for my liking.
