    I like this shot , not for the meaning of the visual but for the title. We are often stuck in the national view point. SO when I think of Heros I think of French, British and Americans., Now for the first time I'm presented with the hero's of the other side. "Brilliant". We must never forget no matter what the war was about, there are Hero's.

    a shot with a powerful "aura": i can literally feel its "funnel composition" reach out for me, can feel that singled-out cross in the first row almost touch the root of my nose!! and the crosses look like rows of people, standing still and spreading their arms as if united in some kind of silent protest – no more war!! fascinating! lg, sabine.

    norman mailer hat das miterlebt in den
    ardennen als soldat und berichterstatter. ein wahnsinn
    muss das kurz vor schluss gewesen sein und die
    amerikaner vesuchen noch heute zu finden,
    zuzuordnen, abzuschliessen...

    excellent

    saluti
