Collection: challenges
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di for Canon
Location: Minnesota WWII Memorial
Date: Jun 9, 2007
Galleries: Candid, Black and White

 This was taken at the dedication of the Minnesota WWII Memorial. There was 22,000 people there and many men and women in uniform. A very touching event.

Per the comments, here's the image in color. I consider it but ultimately preferred the quadtone (as I oft seem to do these days).

Excellent job- this is a stunning photo - the details of the man are so well captured and the background is so smooth. Clearly one of my favorites in the entire challenge.

Nice capture - not sure what's going on in the processing but his skin appears to be a very unusual colour.
