Description

The Iwo Jima memorial taken during the day, tomorrow I'll post another one of this taken at night. If anybody has actually taken a good look when at this memorial it has a strange twist to it. If you stand back away from it and walk around it, the flag that the GI's are holding has an illusion of it going up. Like watching a slow movie of them raising the flag. It's unbelievable. We went on a night tour bus and the driver pointed this out to us and to be sure we saw it he drove around the memorial twice for all of us to see.
