When this challenge came out, the gun and flower photos of the 1960's protests came to mind. So this is my "hat in the ring" for this ever polarizing subject.

one of my top scores given out (a 9).
Kudos for changing the perspective to the flower in the challenge of guns.
Many may read my comments on this challenge (and my scores moreso) as a general "anti gun person" - which is not the case. I think they have a time and place, and I love the minimal amount of gun here, showcasing that peace can grow out of the fading of arming ourselves.
that is not always the case, i'm not naieve, but anybody who believes the opposite is blind to a cyclical arms race that will inevitably come about from wide-spread like-minded mentality.

This sends a huge message out, so strong but yet simple

I am torn on this one. Love the message truly I want peace, but I also love AR's and I hate anything construed as anti gun. Still artistically well done regardless of the politics
