 Late last year, three teens were late for high school. Driving too fast on a wet road, the driver, a 16 year old girl, spun out of control and hit an oncoming car. Two of the three teens were killed, one having been ejected from the vehicle. The third teen survived, as did the other vehicle's driver.

These memorials remain, reminding other drivers and passersby of the loss.


Hue saturation layer, crop, USM, sharpen edges and flatten, resize and add frame, save for web.

I had a similar idea but couldn't get it done in time. I think this definitely tells a story and also leaves someone feeling something. 8

Love this one, it's the first one as I've been going through that I really felt has given a true story through the photo.
