 So I was walking down the road and there was this big gathering of small soldiers. I went to see what was up and apparantly they just got back from some military games thing and were waiting for the bus. Some where cadets, others just interested in the military

Some of these kids were younger than me and I think it's ridiculous to get them involved in military stuff so young and play these 'games.' War isn't a game and shouldn't be taught as one, let alone recruit young kids into this perception. I asked if it was some kind of training but nope, games.

Really good, Joey. I like the brushes that look like cracks. Great use of sepia and post editing. Keep making statements like this. They need to be heard!!!

And you shot this today, didja?
Hmm. Looks cool in sepia with all the cracks and all that, it looks all old-timey and stuff.
Good job, little mr. lawrence. :)

Love your perspective Joey... I'm only thankful that over here its merely games.. in other parts of the world its the awful reality for too many children. This would be a great anti-war campaign poster!! You have a talent for speaking the truth in your photo's.. they are eye opening and reflective.. (( sorry its the social worker in me cant help it )) laughing.
