I'm living here in those Flanders Fields .. i must say that remembrance and thankfullness for our liberation is still very vivid here, even after almost 90 years .. over 11 years Flanders is planning (already now) the biggest events to put this awesome period even more into people's minds (again) : the NO MORE WAR message must be repeated until eternity !!!

Poignant image, Dave! Compositionally it is great with the repeating patterns and the foreshortened perspective. Eb

...very nice composition, the boys that went to war, came home as men and went on to make Canada THE Great Nation it is today. B&W suites this picture to show the loss we all acknowledge together on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

I thought initially that cropping the trees off from the background would strengthen the already very very strong look of the graves, Dave. But then I did that, and no! They belong there! They give depth and distance and they make the series of graves to look even longer.
The details add a grainy look that enhances the remembrance of times past. And the light, rather balanced and silent, does do at least some justice for the unlucky young guys that were sent to death again, when politicians proved to be incompentent one more time.
"Bravery"... ha! The typical excuse of politicians for convincing us to get the guns against each other, while they appear on tv, far far away from the killing fields.
I don't give it a 7 because of "bravery". I give it a 7 because of photography documenting "bravery".
All the best,
Nick
