May 31st - Memorial Day

This all started years ago in 1868 as Decoration Day, a day when people remembered those who gave their lives in the American Civil War. Later, it became Memorial Day. This year the day marks the official opening of the WWII Memorial in Washington DC and corresponds with the 60th anniversary of D-Day, June 6th.

This is my moment of observation, my moment of silence.

Yep, one of those images/compositions that could be used for lots of things. Good lighting and texture.

I like the way you used an object we're all familiar with and made a new design out of it.
