Thanks for the comments, Pops & Michael. Thanks for the suggestion, Michael. I did push the contrast a bit and I also enlarged the mourner about 25% to increase their visibility a bit. Thanks again and cheers, -mikey

Ditto Pops comment, and I think you've done it rather well. That being said, IMHO you could push the contrast even farther than you've already done (which is, of course, a matter of personal taste). -Michael

We've got far to few blue as an emotion in this challenge.

Very nice!

Superb, Michael. Perfectly done and fitting excellently into the "blue as emotion" type definition. Compliments on a most powerful and touching photograph. Regards jnconradie

Thanks Julie and Trav, I appreciate the comments. I thought another kind of blue was appropriate, especially in these trying times. We have five military bases in CS and this scene is all too common here. Regards, -mikey
