Wreath Laying at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (IR)

KevXman

I was at Alington National Cemetery yesterday morning shooting for DSS Challenge #42. I had the IR camera in my hand as I was passing the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and saw this exchange. Instead of fumbling for the other camera I went ahead and snapped one in IR. Just thought that I'd share.

For The Fallen


Thanks for looking.

Howdy Kevin,

Very somber image, the IR adds a different look to the already moody

Subject.

Good timing and capture, Good Luck with the Competition,

One small suggestion, and that would be to clone out the tree right over the Soldiers hat, and that would also give a little headspace to the image.

Good call on the tree Craig. Even though I entered a different shot in the challenge I will clean this one up so that it will become a "Keeper". Thanks

Had you not mentioned Arlington for reference I could easily wonder the
context. But thats just me.
