The History Channel was filming a segment on Storming the beach at Normandy. There were a bunch of soldiers dressed in Traditional WWII clothing for the video. I caught this inbetween takes, when the Germans were "resting". :-) Now if we had assulted the beach with a first wave like this, it might have been alot easier!! :-) :-)

Great shot! I can just imagine what people think when they get it in the VB, before they read your explanation! :)

This is a fabulous picture. Bikinis and WW2 uniforms on the beach is for sure a big contract. The picture is also very well composed. Perfect!

LOL, this is great. Imagine if they sent a load of women wearing bikinis into Iraq and Afghanistan... that'd soon get Bin Laden out of his cave!

Hi Greg
The subject is rare, and the photo is well taken. Nazi uniforms make me nervous, but it's still a fav because the image isn't manipulated. As a point of historial interest Normandy beach never looked anything like this 1, and German uniforms were grey :o) I think u deserved a higher c-index though.

Lifes around said the 35 millimetre cameraman. Tip of the day get ahead, and go widescreen 1440 x 900 / 1200 x 900 don't fit the monitors!!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
