BAND OF BROTHERS


Melai Parcon Lopez
Lambunao, Iloilo, Philippines
Currently based in Manila



The Scout Rangers just before they take their meal. We will never know what they have to go through for us to sleep soundly at night...to spend time with our loved ones...and to enjoy our freedom...
Gen Charles De Gaulle said, "In the world of command, they must rise, march, run, endure bad weather, go even without food and sleep, and be isolated in some distant post.
They cease to be the masters of their own fate. If they drop on their tracks and their ashes are scattered in the four winds, it is part and parcel of their job. ".

This is a tribute to the army soldier who is selfless in putting his life on the line 24/7.

This is a powerful tribute, Melai. I like the action and abstraction in ONE MORE, FIGHTING HANDS and SACRIFICE. As always your compositions leave me stunned with awe. Voted
