The Vietnam War Memorial - 03-21-2011, 09:36 PM

Critique: CC:

Visited Washington DC over the Spring Break. Here was a possible relative of one of the fallen soldiers, whose name was inscribed on the memorial, pointing to the name with reverence and pride. It felt it was all in the inflexion of his fingers. Didn't have to look for the expression on his face.

C&C is appreciated relating to crop, exposure, composition, processing. particularly want to know if you prefer the color or black and white.

Thanks for looking and commenting.

Black and white is much more powerful to me.

I would warm up the color one if you want to use that.

Thanks, Thomas, Dennis and David for indicating your preference. I'll try the warming, too to see how things change.
