    I like this. I think all the technicals and etc. are good in this shot. I like the contrast in this b&w. The dark sky and light clouds are nice effect.Also the reflection of the tree in the monument gives us a feel of what is going on around the area. Good shot

    Hoo Ahh!

    Mememorials can be a difficult shoot, but I think you captured the essence of this particular memorial well...

    You show the reflections in granite and some of the names.

    This is a very dignified photograph of a subject that deserves great dignity..

    Your photo, like the monument, directs our thoughts in the right direction.

    Very nice work.
