How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Although all are really great--simple, unobtrusive, and to the point--I find #3 especially moving. The contrast between the bright colors of the flags (and all they represent) and the more muted tones of the subject and the surrounding grey of the Wall really work magic to my eye.

    Very nice, Harry. Two's the strongest for me, because it's the most emotional.

    A great set of images ! The first has the most impact for me ,it is visually appealing to view,the two people in it speak volumes to me about how, many people, can be affected by the loss of a life.

    I like the first as it communicates the generational sharing that is likely occurring here -- something that he probably has not shared at all previously.

    Second and third show the emotional impact that the display is having on these veterans remembering fallen comrades.

    Wonderful set.
