[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The train represents transportation, the steel beam represents industry, the bell represents a voice to be heard, and the flag stands for the land of the free. Many, many, years ago my dad, who was a true iron man, brought my mom and I to this country in search of a better life. A few days ago I posted a cardinal in honor of my mom. I post this in honor of my father. Although my parents have both passed on, their birthdays fell within two weeks of each other in October, so this to say happy birthday and again, thanks.

Not too much pp work and I did it a couple of weeks ago. From what I remember - crop, slight increase in contrast and sharpening.

Have a great day everyone!

Hi Werner

Good use of a shallow dof, with nice symmetrical bg reflections of the US flag, that add a patriotic touch. Excellent color & diffused lighting. Tfs!

Werner, this is so nice. I like symbolic photos, of course, I would not have been able to figure it out on my own. ...let freedom ring! Very nice POV with the flags in the BG. I've also been trying to do a flag photo, but I don't have it yet.

So, how old were you when you came here, and from where? ...many, many...you're not that old.

Thanks for sharing this tribute!
