Thanks, Don and Jim. The turnout was lower than I expected for what I thought was a versatile topic. No one did strong coffee, strong contrast, strong drink, strong language (graffiti, protest signs), or athletes/weightlifters​. Good photos, though. I appreciate the four who showed up while wondering what happened to others.

:eek: Yikes ,thank you i wasn't expecting that.I thought RDWP Robs entry was so powerful and strong , especially at this time of the year in the UK. I will be back in a minute with a new challenge.

Congrats to you, Jim and Old Crow! And thanks for your comments. It was the evening of 11 November that I posted. It's a wee bit of the Korean war vets memorial in Washington - one of the most powerful commemoratives in the area, IMHO.

Rob, I agree with you on the Korean Memorial. It’s the best on the Mall by far.

I love to photograph the faces of the soldiers…they are so expressive. The artist did an awesome job!

Yes, and it's as if you just stumble on this platoon wandering through the undergrowth. I can't think of any other monument I've seen at all like this one. And then there are their little bird companions.
