Csorna: 1956 memorial

I just thought I'd see how this worked. From this angle, which I really liked, the distortion was phenomenal and not fixable, but the composition was also unbalanced as I was unable to stand dead center. So I decided to cut a lot of the structure out and hope for the best!

But far more dramatic than showing the whole thing. It adds more meaning to the outstretched hands. V
