[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
80 million people have died in wars in the past 100 years. This Memorial at Alrewas in the National Memorial Arboretum remembers those who served their country. The sad moment for me was looking at the empty space on the blank walls waiting for more names to join them.

Hi Colin. Itīs quite a touchfull photo. Today a spanish innocent has died as well because of a nonsense war here, so your photo become specially remarkable for me. I love the sense of balance of the arquitecture you portrait here. I hope no more names get added here. Thanks and take care.

Hi Colin a beautiful view of this terrifiant place, with that wall full of names, full od deads.
excellent quality and perfect POV too.

Hi Colin. I like the combination of curves and straight lines in your shot. Nice perspective. Regards, Yvonne

What a beautiful photo. Somber, but beautiful with the perfect muted colors. It seems, that even the clouds were cooperating with you on that day. Wonderful perspective, in a touching photo. Well done.
