 Shot inside the stark, bunkerlike War Museum in Ottawa. This gallery of statues was beautifully lit.

This shot is especially poignant, as the day before, Ryan's grandfather, a veteran, passed away peacefully at home at the age of 91.

Excellent use of leading lines to emphasize the magnitude of the scene. It really makes the viewer feel insignificant to what is happening.

Interesting concept, fun perspective, though not pushed enough. There is just something missing here and that angular piece on the view left is a distraction for me. Moreso then the one on the right. Also I think I would have liked a bit more concept if the camera was moved a step or two to the viewer left. To bring in more of the vertical ascension aspect with the windows.
