 This moving photo taken in the Holocaust death camp Berkinow. Is symbolic of the continuous battle Jews might fight in against anti-semitism. The Israeli flag represents life and the barbed wire fence represent the death and anti-semitism the Jews must fight against. Complete opposites.

Amazing that you have access to a place like this. Very nice.

I like this picture. Very dramatic shot that speaks volumes. I think revealing more detail in the structures (particularly the closest fence) would have increased the images impact slightly.

The glare on the flags bothers me a bit. the saturation in the green is beautiful, and I like the point of view with the fence.

I don't really get the idea..

What exactly am I looking at here. I see Isreali flags, but what's the context? Where are they? I'm giving it a 5 for now, but I can always change that later if you want to tell me what this means.
