 American Cemetery here in Cambridge UK, the scope of the place is humbling especially when you realise it's a tiny fraction of those lost.

Picked up some late low sun which made the cross appear to glow which I kinda like although looks a little unreal which may not go down too well. I don't imagine I'll be the only shot of this subject but I'm fairly happy with the result here.

Plus, seemed like a good question to me.

This is a particularly well-done take on this concept. The greens have more yellow to them than I'd like, but the composition and perspective are terrific and evoke sadness quite effectively.

Sad..... Why do we fight? I think the photographer is a little too close to the subject.... I would like to see more of a wide angle.... overall, very good though

I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......
