Trawling through some old 35mm negs, I came across these. Takes on a 35mm Zeiss Ikonta c1956.
No GPS or EXIF info available in those days.

The War Memorial at Floriana. Malta.

This grave marker is at the peak of Evans Notch in New Hampshire.
I cannot tell you why it is located at the summit, but hikers and tourists leave coin and memento on it in remembrance.

Just a touch of Photoshop.

You did well to retrieve that info. About all I get from my old dark room logbook is the date and processing for a given film strip reference.

Hi FLphotoguy. Thanks for posting. Trying to find words for this sobering picture, but they elude me. A bit chilling perhaps?
A memorial to man’s inhumanity to man. Nothing changes. The world never learns, and never will.

Sorry, had to remove some spots/sign because I'm participating in WAIN, so not to disclose the location.
