Here are two concept photos that my wife and I did to honor those military persons that have fallen. Inspired by my father who fought in the Vietnam War and who lost many friends.
The first photo is titled "Salute" and the second "Remember".

    Very poignant and well done.

    The second really hits home to me because of the roadside IED connection it makes.

    Thanks for posting those. HOOAH!

    I personally believe that both pictures honor the name you both have chosen.
    Attitude, color, light and selection of subject in relation to the frame is great.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My respect.
    GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

    Love the grittiness of the soldier and landscape and the way it contrasts with the sunset sky.
