Techically stunning, especially the lush grass matted with debris, the 
accuracy of the tree species, even the sky.
Thematically I feel like the thought is there, the elements are orbiting 
around but haven't come together quite yet. Compositionally, the 
symmetry, with the ruin right in the center, perhaps calls for something 
more pared down and stark, or else the lushness wants for less symmetry? 
  The ruin, feels not quite right, something so destroyed, yet still 
maintaining crucial details of wrought iron and archway.
That it is not overgrown in such a lush setting, and the flanking dead 
trees are the tipoff to what you are aiming to say off course, but I 
just don't quite feel that it has jelled into a total statement.

The strange coincedence of events around the cross with raven, for 
instance, leaving the tree behind seem to float.
