[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This image shows what is going on in a certain part of the world. I'm not trying to offend anyone or country. All opinions are helpful and appreciated. I hope you enjoy this image and I know the current political climate and don't judge my character for showing weapons in a photo.
Have a great weekend.

Powerful photo. Very powerful looking subjects. Nice job. JP

I think showing the weapons is ok because it is a part of thier daily life. They both look very serious and good at what they do. Great work!

Really good job.

showns a part of the real world...maybe ...I don`t like the title...I understand when you say " not trying to offend..." ...but...for other people...this two soldiers on the pic might not be deffending their freedom. The moment and the compo is good. and of course, this is just a comment.

What a harsh reality. Well captured!

Nice job Dave! I remember when this one was originally posted on TE. God's best,

Tim

I am sorry to see this, thanks for making me remember some facts!.

Love - Peace

The light is good, sharpness and detail are very good especially on the very well seen weapons and troops' faces. But this is one of the most disturbing photos I have seen today. I dont want to offend anyone or any country. regards.

I don't see why this should disturb or offend anyone, it's just two guys doing their job. Having said that in Canada it's now considered too offensive for TV presenters to say "Merry Christmas", has to be "happy holidays" or something similar...

I really like this shot, it seems kind of sad. I like the composition with the subjects either side of the shot. Also the one on the right looks a bit like Kurt Russel, so he gets my vote!

One more very nice job! Well done.

Steph.
