Lest we forget

bill · 11/12/06, 11:46 AM

I was in London yesterday, for the Lord Mayor's Show. I took the time to go to the Garden of Rememberance at Westminster Abbey. I took a number of shots, but this one stood out.

Respect and regards,

Bill

That is outstanding, Bill.

Our ceremony in the village isn't until this afternoon - I hope the weather improves...

Superb! And timely.

Well composed.

Great shot. Thanks for sharing. John

Sad and tragic to think of what might have been accomplished by each of those lost lives. Potent image, this--and a powerful composition.

Very compelling image. Thanks for posting.

Nothing new to add, just beautiful.

Hello,

I find the admission impressing technically as kompositorisch in its message reminding for me.

Kind regards

Wolfgang

Gentlemen, thank you very much. As some of you who frequent the Customer Forum may remember I went through a bit of a photographic crisis recently. This was one shot from two days of intensive card-filling in both Brighton and London that was intended as "self-therapy" to help me to get over the "block". Your encouraging and inspiring comments and feedback are a big help too. When I get the chance I shall post more shots from both "expeditions".

Regards,

Bill

nice.

Bill -

What a fine example of overcoming your "block". This venue does shout out to be photographed, but I suspect that it was difficult to come up with a shot this effective. Very haunting. Well done.
