One of the Flickr groups I belong to is “Our Daily Challenge”. Each day a topic is given to inspire your photography. This particular challenge was “very big” It took me a few days to get around to it but I knew immediately what I wanted to photograph and the feeling I wanted to convey.
There were a number of things including a giant doughboy statue that I captured that day. But when the person in the red coat walked among the gravestones I knew this was the perfect shot.
I was thrilled that so many people commented on my photo saying how strong and emotional it was. Flickr picked it up for their EXPLORE page. Wow, my first explore.
So here it is. Tell me what you think of it.

Love the picture….thanks for sharing!
Oh Diane it is a very powerful image. Thanks for sharing it and there is no doubt why it was picked for the Explore page. ~Lili
Diane,
It’s certainly emotional. Powerful and poignant. No wonder Flickr picked it up for their Explore page.
It’s big in the sense of important. And moving, especially if you’ve been to an extensive cemetery, like those in Normandy.
Well done, thanks!
