We have some huge WW2 monuments around here, too, especially in Belgium, close across the border...when I come along such monuments I always have to think of all those strangers, who lost their lives in fighting...for or against whatever...still so much war and cruelty going on in the world, which makes me wonder if humanity will ever learn to live in peace and harmony and solve problems without agression and weapons...
they are well done, these memorials, put this way the memory can really talk and relate. i mean, even from the photos i feel the gravity of its meaning. i like that sense, when people feel united even in not knowing one another, a feeling of unison rises... sad, but so moving. n♥
I love these - very moving!
