Description
a very good morning to you all :o)
i went out last night to 18 th birthday party to let my hair down, if i had some so to speak and felt more than a bit out of place .it was full of kids :o)..i must be getting old !!..it was quite funny though watching everyone get drunk whilst i sat there sober .so if i did`nt get round to everyone (i did try) i will catch up today
as i said yesterday the film atonement was part filmed here in redcar and what you see is a commemoration left to mark what the heroes of the d-day landings did in the second world war ..its strange that its said "this was the war to end all wars" and yet here we are 63 years later still fighting wars ,still losing young lives and still the human race can`nt say enough is enough !..should arm everyone with a camera and then can shoot anyone they like without hurting any body :o)
have a great weekend my friends

EXCELLENT CAPTURE COLORS & COMPOSITION !!!!!
fantastic words for this unusual capture, Mick, excelent find and shot, nice pov.
Excellent picture!!!
Oh, so true, Mick, as the song says, "When will we ever learn"? Great foto, and if just one person thinks the same thing, and just one life is saved because of it, then it's all worth it.
Splendid capture Mick,wonderful touching mood,hugs!!!:-)
Great catch Mick!
This is so interesting, Mick, and a perfect composition on your part! It looks like an excellent piece of sculpture, i wonder how often they have to paint ouy the graffiti.
What a great suggestion Mick .... if only! This is a nice suprise this shot, I really like sculpture like this one, not the usual statue of a military guy in uniform. great shot.
Morninggggg.... love this capture and your thought provoking words ;O)Have a nice day!
Wow what a brilliant sculpture i love this its really different from the norm superb capture have a great day hugs lou x
Great capture mick, Excellent.
I have to agree with you Mick about cameras instead of guns. Fantastic capture. Beautiful mood-set.
very ingenious sculpture and capture is superb
Nice sentiments .........
great shot, creative motiv :-)
I am smiling as I write/type this Mick, many years ago I saw a film/documentry on Safari's and the hunters were armed with rifles that had camera's instead of bullets and all they could do was shoot pictures of the animals only the guides had guns with ammunition. I said then its a pity all soldiers guns weren't like them. I wonder why there's a Sea Gull on top off the sculpture Mick, is it to stop the real ones from crapping on it?lol. It does look suprisingly clean as well, no graffiti as far as I can tell. The rifle reminds me of Dad's Army with their wooden ones. Excellent work and narrative. Bravo!!!!!
una bella escultura, amigo excelente trabajo.felicidades
Very creative ! Love this capture , Ana
This is a fantastic capture Mick! Very beautiful view :)
Excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent shot, Mick. Fantastic details and clarity!
A wonderful sculpture and shot Mick. I echo your thoughts entirely.. We all want an end to all wars.. Hugs. Diane.
It is a very creative picture my friend
Fantastic photo Mick! And happy to hear that you went to that 18th Birthday party! haha I could imagine how the teens were partying. been there, done that before hehe!! ahh sec brb.... coffee is done in the pot.. ok back. have my wake up juice lol. Yes I have to agree, it is quite strange they made that bold statement. how could they predict what the future would hold for us. and yes, I wish it was just cameras and no dang guns. have a great weekend my friend. and that idea about dinner photos haha... yeah that may be cool. especially for the ones that have extended uploads a day capability! Mike.
Fantastic image and idea! Very creative indeed!
i really look forward to your posts and this one is no exception. the photo and the story are a whole. thanks for sharing.
Wonderful scene
Splendid capture and idea Mick.
fabulous compo and great mood. Stellar job.
I agree with you, Mick, and we could melt all the guns down and make cameras out them!! What a great thing that would be. Mothers do not raise their sons just to go off to war. Check my avatar, all of that grey hair came during the time our son was in Afghanistan for 14 months. Excellent capture.
