Again, i was irresponsible and forgot to log exactly what i did, but again, ill just cover the major edits.

Firstly, i messed around with the brightness, contrast, shadow and highlights to get the image looking the way i wanted.

I then duplicated the layer and desaturated it about 80%. I then began to erase around the cross lay on the floor to make it stand out from the rest of the picture.

If i've missed anything out that you would like to know about, just ask

Comments and constructive critisizm are encouraged

Oh my goodness... this has to be one of the best edits I've seen in awhile. The hues, the contrast... great job.
However, the flowers look a tad off compared to the rest of the photo; the bright, red-orange coloring against the cooler tones doesn't match too well... it does look a little unnatural.
Nonetheless, well done!

Thankyou very much (:
Although, i was going for an unatural look.
My representation was that even though some graves are old and beat up, they can still look as beautiful and stand out as much as the huge structures
