Arlington Cemetery at Christmas

Thanks to Wreaths Across America, a Christmas wreath is placed on every grave at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at many other national cemeteries. It is a beautiful commemoration.

I was just there yesterday to visit my grandfather's grave. It was so very surreal. It was my picture of the day for yesterday.

What wonderful imagery

[Bob Zwolinsky]

Your framing really emphasises the scale of lost. The central tomb stone in the foreground fanning out to so many, then with not end insight the feeling is of a vast lost of life.
