Wow. Incredible.
Not too long ago, I was having a discussion with someone I know about how long is long enough for graves to stay where they are, before they disappear or "die". And then here's this. It's a second death almost. Very somber, very quiet, very unnoticed. Very much like time passes you by.
You seemed to have captured that well. There seems to be another stone behind the main headstone, so maybe it is supposed to lean back. But it leans to the side, and the growth that you got in good detail in the shot really add to that "death of the grave". And the black and white, excellent choice, really somber and brings focus on the moment. And of course, the moss, the higher grass, the weathered stone, even the tree in the back all add to that time passed by feel.
Maybe I see this differently than you intend, but I still find this incredible. A fav for sure.

Thank you for this long comment. And I must say that I like your design of βthe second dead oneβ, tomb death if I then to say.
I was not sure that the desired effect is there, and thanks to your comment, I believe to have succeeded.
(please not too much do not pay attention to the faults, I am not good in English!)

You certainly did get the desired effect. I'll be stopping by more often!
