Hi Roberto,

Sensible subject. At first I tought it refered to some trafic acidents, in Brasil one can see crosses on the road in homage to people that died in accidents at that place. The picture is perfect, nicelly composed, with a warm light and colors and perfect focus.

Regards,

Flavia

Hi, Roberto,
Good document of this monument. I like how you left the line of trees along the top, as though to allow the viewer to see beyond the darkness of war the site represents. The colors and detail are very good, too. An interesting landmark. Best, -Hugh

Hello Roberto sorry about the delayed response.
this shot has a really poignant feel, though i can't work out what the cross is placed in.
The chiaro-scuro is very effective.
Is WW1 relevant to your family history Roberto?

Good sensitive work.
Regards, David.

Very powerful shot Roberto, as I admire this photo a rush of images from the first world war come to my mind and how this people suffered such a terrible ordeal that no human being should be put trough, yet these people sacrificed so much so that we can be free of (tirany) today...remarkable, well done for choosing a wonderful subject, simple but powerful, I love the sharpness in the rusty tin as if I could almost smell it and with a pleasant composition closing in on the subject, Kind regards and don`t stop that imagination from going wild, there`s a world out there waiting to be photographed.

Hello Roberto,
Very poignant. Nothing else needs to be said. Chris

Very moving and telling too - of that place, I remember the military cimetaries, so neat and with aligned crosses, but here in the nature : a totally different feel !
Compliments,

Cath.
