Default Oklahoma City Memorial

My daughters had a cheerleading competition in Oklahoma City, so I decided to visit the memorial for the victims of the April 19th, 1995 bombing that destroyed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. I converted a few of the shots to B&W because I thought it gave them a more majestic look...I humbly submit them for your feedback.

BTW, if you've never visited the site or are not familiar with the elements of the memorial, here is the link to the official website...

A view of the "Gates of Time" (from 6th Street and Harvey Avenue)







The "Healing Wall"










This one I softened a bit...


Tokens of love








and I gave a high key contrast to this one...


The "Survivor Tree"






Sorry about the size...I reduced them to 1000 x 667 thinking they would fit into the 1024 x 1024 box, but apparently not.
