EYES WIDE SHUT from The library of my soul, United Kingdom

I feel so naughty for laughing, such a worthy and significant monument, but hey, that's hilarious! If soldiers marched into battle looking like that, there would never be a war, the opponents would fal about the floor laughing.

I appologise, and will get my coat now....

Like the vignette effect, focuses the attention on the white capped soldiers and the angel in the back, wonderful effect with the snow.

Soldiers look in clothes from the snow down how alive... Great and funny shot!

JJ from Jersey City, United States

Sorry but I was the same as Eyes Wide shut on this one, it cracked me up laughing, which perhaps isnt appropriate for this monument, but thinking of soldiers marching into war like this also cracked me up also,

But I dont feel so bad I was a soldier for many years so consider it laughing at myself also

Wonderful capture none the less
