This is at Arlington Nat'l Cemetery. It is a very sobering place to say the least. These guards stand in 100+ temperatures and march back and forth in front of the tomb in wool uniforms, with the most precise precision you've ever seen. All of them must have 28 inch waists too. I did some dodge and burn and layered it to give the dark sad tones.
Beautifully handled, Judy. Has the right sense of reverence and solemnity. And yes, there are some very strict requirements for the guys who do this job. It is a huge honor, and one people compete for. Their days are very regimented and from what I understand, it is a very, very demanding job, but also a very rewarding one. Thanks for sharing this one.
