Charlene, I was one of your 4s. I'm glad you found an appreciative audience in the folks who commented before me, though. :)
I didn't really get it, and I didn't understand the blurred reflected figures. I think the idea of capturing both the statues and the carvings is good, though.
Charlene this is a really cool capture. I love the bluish, ghostly tones of the etchings. Actually, the brownish reflections look kind of ghostly as well. Excellent perspective.
I find this a most interesting photo, and under-appreciated by the voters. I really like the sense of chaos, which could be a deliberate metaphor for the war. I think you should consider entering this in some different venues. It may not be the "right" kind of eye-candy shot for DPC, but has a lot of merit and is a photo of which you should be proud.
I TOLD you we should have photographed the Liberty Bell!!!
I really cant believe that this did not score better although the fact that 17 people scored it 7 or higher does show that there were people out there who really liked it
I love the fact that you managed to catch so much of the etched faces and bodies on the memorial together with glimpses of the reflections of the statues behind it
What you mean Jon doesn't appreciate the significance of the Liberty Bell.
Interesting photo. I have never see the Korean War memorial although I know (or knew) men that fought over there.
Of all the memorials in Washington DC, this is the one that is closest to my heart. I think you have captured it in a new and very creative way. this is worthy of a Posthumous award.
