Totally agree! Nice colors!

Thanks for looking. Also, thanks to those who have served and especially to those young men & women that are currently serving.

Seeing and walking among those buried here was truly a moving experience. I got there early in the morning and was the only one there the entire time I was shooting.

Thanks to all of you for your comments. Really appreciate them. As I said before, I got there early in the morning and was the only one there, and as I walked thru the gravesites photographing them, it makes one think of what our Veterans have given us.

I would someday like to visit the graves of WWII at Normandy.

Beautifully shot Ken.

I had an idea of doing this at a local Civil War cemetery on Veterans day as well, but was swamped with other plans.

Thnaks Dez. I really enjoy visiting the National Cemeterys, especially on Memorial Day weekend when there flags placed in front of each headstone.

very nice images, but looks like you have done something to the flag in the last image and it has left a line above it???

 

[Mike S]

Awesome images. Thanks to those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
