STARKLY SAD! Beautifully captured and related so well in your narration.

Beautiful.. Thank you.. This brought tears to my eyes.

A very powerful image, Regmar, much more powerful than words.

Very nice. You sure do know how to capture a beautiful image and discribe it's caring qualities. Thanks so much for sharing.

Very beautiful sign of mourning, respect and care. I mean both the flowers and your meaningful image. Thank you, Reg.

Very moving image. I like the angle that you shot from. The trees make an almost eerie background. You did a nice framing job as well. Very nicely done.

Stark, sad & moving, you can't help but be effected by this image.The destruction is doubly pounded home by the incredible beauty of the framing sky.....Thank you Reg, for sharing this with us. I appreciate the care & sensitivity of this image.

A toughing capture Reg.

Another poignant, touching image of the severe devastation left behind by hurricane Katrina Reg. This image makes one wonder if this was a reminder that people lived there or left in memory of those who died there? Every time I view one of your or Dj's images from New Orleans, I am reminded of that horrid feeling in my gut that I got when the hurricane was approaching and the helpless that I felt and my son was there on rescue, not as a resident. I cannot imagine what the residents felt in their gut as they watched (or lived or died) as this monster tore through their homes, their lives and their city and destroyed what they knew. I hope that you & Dj are finding some catharsis in doing this series. I know that for me, it is a powerful reminder of something that I want to forget because of the pain it produced, not only inside of me, but what it did to other human beings. Another piece of excellent work, my friend. My best to you & Lourdes today . Peace :~)

i really like this one Reg.. one of the very few from that day where the color explains the story better.. one can only imagine the intent of the flowers; rememberance, memories, just plain caring.. well done my friend

Hi Regmar- So many questions lie behind these plastic flowers. Could they have been placed by the previous owners to express their grief and also love for where their home once stood? . Perhaps someone perished and this is some type of memorial left by someone who loved them. So many unanswered questions to ponder at just these simple plastic flowers. Only the person who left them can answer. Thank you Regmar- You have shown that something inanimate can shout.. Eileen

A powerful image and a stark reminder of the power of a hurricane. Thanks for remining us that people still need help in that area.

Hi Regmar. This shot is nicely done with good dof and composition. Thanks for sharing this.

This is both touching & sad. A remembrance of what was there & is now gone. We can only imagine what the flowers symbolize. Regmar, this is nicely done & thank you for shariing.

I can honestly say that I would expect to see these images from a pro. I sit here wondering if this disaster has really changed your skill at photography or if is it purely the feelings I get from these images. I think it is your emotions though towards your composition. Wow, the mood swing is something else. Thanks Reg!

I love how you are capturing some photos from a historical perspective. While the technical aspects of your work are to be noted the content of your photography is what makes your work stand out. Thanks for posting these.

Well done Regmar, the memorial you are leaving with these poignant images is priceless and a wonderful tribute to all those who were truly touched by this disaster. I tip my hat to you.

Oh my....such a simple photo that awakens so many emotions. Such a sad loss for someone and yet someone left the flowers..and the way you took this photo certainly touched my heart. Thank you for yet another moment left over from the hurrican disaster. You seem to be the only connection we really have, first hand, from all that devastation.

Very nice pic...what can we say? A terrible disaster.
