[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Memorial Day in America is similar to our Rememberence day in Canada.In addition to National observance,individual communities hold their own Memorial services for the fallen soldiers, who were residents from their town. I happened to be in Jackson Hole to be part of this service in the towns Memorial Park. The veteran in the lead was over 90 years old.
Altered the original by using the Topaz filter to add more details to the scene.

Hi Ron,

The angled path leads into the shot very nicely topaz has in this case given the colours a boost the flag at the front is carried well by the 90 yr old veteran tfs.

Hi Ron,
Nice POV, a good photo from this memorable day. Always plenty of photo opportunities to be had an event like that. The clarity looks good, interesting effect from the topaz adjust. Well taken.

TFS,
Scott.

HI Ron, very good documentary shot. TFS

A good catch here Ron. The 90 year old gentleman looks as determined as ever to carry his flag.
