It needs the reflection on the street.

Better. The shadows need to be darker for more consistency with those in the background, need to be thicker (same width as the cross elements casting the shadow), and need to be skewed so the cross-piece's shadow is parallel to the cross piece. I still think having the top of each row noticeably lower than the top of the row in front of it would capture the falling away of the foreground for better linkage with the background.

The only thing I might have changed would have been the shadows on the dancers, needed to blur them a bit and give them a bit of transparency. Otherwise you did a nice job. Best of luck.

lightings and shadows doesn't feel right. sky is too blue and dark and w/o any evidence where the light is coming from to cast such a strong shadow on the stones. like the others were saying, celtic crosses needed dark shadows too to match the stones'.

Crosses need some shadows...

This is a difficult background to work with. The view is looking down towards the lower far field with the foreground sloping away. However, you treated the foreground as flat [my eyes interpret the crosses as equal-sized and vertically true], but that's inconsistent with being able to see the tops of the hay bales in the far field. The light is from the upper left corner, so we should be looking at the shadowed side of the crosses and they should have long, strong shadows going south-southeast (like those of the hay bales). If the crosses are marking graves, they seem too close together. And then they don't seem to be organized in a cemetary-like grid (after adjusting for perspective, of course).

I think you should dim or fade the bluish background, maybe even som slight blur also.

Yes I agree too bright and a little shadow at the bottom of the crosses will help greatly. Also you could push the shorter grass onto the crosses just a bit to make it not float. Very easy fix for higher votes Good luck Author

place shadows under each cross, and try adjusting the brightness, the original source was a bit too bright.

Is behind the foreward couple their shadow? If it is, needs some perspective to match their feet...
