Well this is either flip or ana. Im guessing Ana.. Good detail, but I can imagine it being better without the tree, half a dozen steps to the right should do it

Probably the quietest crowd that we'll see on here. People may have a problem with the pole in the middle. IMHO, the soldiers and the ground are very much in focus and that makes them stand out enough. Plus, I doubt there's much you could do to get around it. Safety first...and land mines are nothing to be reckoned with.

@stolenlife..a few steps to the right there were about 4 trees. You can see the branch of one such tree at the right. I actually posted this not thinking it was the best shot, but wanting exactly this kind of feedback, so thank you.

Think this is the face on the right - Great subject here !!
War is a bad disease..

Beamer said 1986 days ago:

Wow, like this one a lot!! I really do wonder what it would feel like without the pole...? High marks for sure though.

Interplay said 1986 days ago:

Good concept but the post that divides the picture is too distracting.

Ana said 1985 days ago:

Yes, the post sucks! It was raining, there was mud everywhere, and mostly I was trying to capture that face at the back of the group. I thought it was powerful!

stolenlife said 1985 days ago:

Could you have cropped to the post, keeping just the right half of the shot, and maintained the quality? Just wondering

Beamer said 1985 days ago:

I looked at this again this morning and had the same thought I briefly had the other night: The pole could be a tent pole and I am looking out and the guy is yelling "move your ass Beamer, we're leaving"...

Ana said 1984 days ago:

Beamer..yes, I don't dislike the pole, it gives it atmosphere.
yeah. that's it. atmosphere.
:)
