How can I improve this photo

Figure out the message you want to convey to the viewer, your primary focal point (stone, wife, number of buried, etc) and work from there. Good pic - I got the message - she missed the person.

Hi and my I make an attempt as well? I do not want to download and try without permission first as people feel differently about that kind of stuff

I used the D500 with a Tamron 70-200/2,8 lens and a polarizer. One thing I do not like about the Tamron that I had on my Olympus 70-200 was a finger slide in the lens shade to turn the polarizer. I did not use a lens shade. On the first shot I was next to a tree that shaded me so I would not get lens flare.
