Shot at the funeral of the 100th soldier killed from Fort Riley, KS. Just happened to be my childhood best friend. The family asked me to cover the event for his 2 year old son to remember.

Very well executed & dynamic photo...should of scored much higher. I think you handled some tough light very well, and maybe even made it work to your advantage.
This has a muted tonal quality that I think you may get hammered for, but I think it's amazing... reminds me of pictures from the 60's for some reason.
Very emotional image. Nice PP without being over done. Only wish he was standing a few inches forward so the flag would be covering the background next to his face.
