This is an older shot (taken last Oct.) of the Viet Nam Memorial. Now it has some new meaning with the loss of 6 American and 8 British troops. (As a side note - when I shot this image, I had set up a tripod to shoot it - quickly police came and told me I couldn't do that - so I set up a Bogen SuperClamp with a tripod head on the rail of the surrounding fence - to which police said I couldn't do that either - nor could I set a tripod on the grass on the outside of the rail. (I shot this image while mounted on the Superclamp while the officer was "scolding" me)
