Photographer's Note
Arlington National Cemetery in Washington D.C., USA. Those who served our great nation in the military and who may have died in battle for freedom are buried here. Thank you all who have protected our country and have been brave and selfless to keep us free.

May I offer some critical thought? I respect the feeling of this image, a tribute to veterans and a look at hallowed ground. You have also included the VERY personal touch of the rocks that have been placed at the top of this grave marker -- they let us know that someone was here who cared specifically about this soldier. This is a moving tableau!
But two things bother me about the technical aspects. First, the textures in the lower parts of Private Korson's stone are wonderful, but they disappear at the very top -- the image is overexposed there and the highlight detail is "blown out."
Second, what has happened to the greens of the grass in the background? I suspect it is related to the same overexposure problem that has blown out the details in all of the markers in the background.
Depending on how the original image appears, you may want to try some different post-processing to see what might be done.
All my best, and all critiques offered in the friendly spirit of our common goal of improving our skills!
