 This is a picture of a lady in the courtyard between blocks 10 and 11 at Birkenau, where between 1942 and 1943, the SS shot several thousand people at the wall in the background. I was intending on capturing just the wall and gate, but the lady moved into the frame. I was not going to press the shutter, but she turned around and I thought it might make for an interesting picture.

Very powerful storytelling with this photo.

I like that you framed the lady. The ground is a bit "hot" but I absolutely love the detail in the brick! The 70-200 is an amazing lens! Congrats on a pretty successful shot.
