Part of the Arlington West Travelling Memorial. This name particularly struck me for reasons I know not. I thought this image brought a human element into the picture.

I labelled this as conceptual because I wanted to show how I felt the cross with a soldier's name on it was standing forth, sharp and crisp, leading the blurry background into a better future. I guess it's a cliche.

Originally I did not want to post this picture due to privacy reasons for the family, but I finally decided to post it after removing the last name. Removing the name in its entirety would have completely altered the picture in an undesireable way: the human element would be completely gone. I don't wish to offend the family though, so if they ask I remove than I shall.

I loved this picture, but I hated the events that transpired to make it possible. I wanted to bring a face to the war.
