memorial for the missing

I was not familiar with this monument before seeing this. Your inclusion of children and father(?) surrounding the bronze statue of the young girl brings a poignancy to the image that increases it's power. It's relatively easy to photograph a monument. To do so with human context that amplifies the memorial intent, not so much. Terrific entry, among my top picks.

Normally, I'm not drawn to photos of statues, however, the careful composition and POV you've captured serves well to convey the spirit of joy you intended. Kudos.

I'm SO curious about what must be outside the right edge. Emotions and story well captured. Bravo.
