Howdy from Arizona! Was at this place a few years ago, and even though there were a lot of people in such a small place, it was still very moving. Did you know the Arizona's bell is in the student union at the University of Arizona in Tucson? Thank you for the reminder ........
Thank you fo rposting such thoughtful and sensitive image of the memorial. I don't think we should ever forget. They day we do is the day we will be painfully reminded.
No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love. [Edvard Munch]
I was there this past summer, and this memorial was by far my favourite part of my vacation... and also the part filled with the most emotion. Really an amazing place, isn't it? I just love the way you captured it here with the leis in front of the names. If you're interested, I have some of my own photographs from hawai'i and Oahu in particular in my gallery (and adding more soon, hopefully).
