Excellent clarity and sharpness Jeff. Such an interesting design with a Moorish arch and then, three Roman arches above. All have a meaning.

Lots of information and thought went into this memorial for those Correspondents that died in war. There is so much information in this memorial I can only suggest looking it up as it would be churlish of me to repeat.
Make your life spectacular!

These brave people certainly put their lives on the line in the fields of battle, Jeff. Lots of symbolism in this interesting memorial.

A beautiful and interesting tribute- I guess Dave knows about this-I've never seen one. Lovely shot and appropriate, perhaps , for our times as well....
