Description
Just a little bit of remembrance for those who have gone before. Remember also those who sacrifice so much to keep us safe and free to enjoy our art, photography, writing and fellowship.
Without the soldiers, sailors and airmen and women, the forces of darkness would overwhelm us. Without the police, firemen, and paramedics, we would find it difficult to feel secure. Without our forbearers, we would not exist.
To all of them, Thank You.
This is a photo I took today while placing flowers on our relatives’ graves. I wanted to give this a painterly feel, so I just ran it through a few filters in Photoshop, and applied a canvas texture.
Thank you all for all your views, comments, faves, and fellowship! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
The Girls From TNA will be back soon!

Thank you for sharing this Rod. It is a beautiful picture as well as meaning.
Very beautiful and thoughtful tribute to all
Beautiful capture and tribute.
A beautiful and moving tribute to our fallen, well done!
WOOOOW! Gorgeous work my friend! Great sentiments too. It's a shame that the ultimate sacrifices made by so many are being squandered and disrespected by a cabinet which wants to throw our freedoms to the wind and turn America into a Socialist Republic.
WELL SAID ROD. BRAVO!!! very nice capture, and a beautiful tribute to all veterans. steve
fantastic! You said it all here, thank you for sharing! Remembered!
Very nice tribute to our heroes, Rod. Your painterly effects turned out like an impressionist art, a classy touch.
amazing tribute,and yes we can bullshit around because other people sacrified their lives for us,and as far as i am concerned the younger generations dont pay enough respect they take all for granted the spoiled brats and even their assholish-parents,in any case thats where they learned their assholes-behavior-. sorry for the rough words but i call a spade a spade.
Lovely tribute Rod and nice effects on this too, well done!!
i am envious of you American. There were the people who dedicate ones life to the mother country in Japan. but It is blamed that we show respect for the people. Sorry. i complained. わたしはあなた方アメリカ人が羨ましいです。 日本にも祖国に命を捧げた人々はいました。 だけど、わたしたちがその人々に敬意を表することは非難されます。 ごめんなさい 愚痴を言ってしまって
GREAT TRIBUTE PICTURE dear Ron!!! I hope that the 'whole world' will not forgot all these 'humans' ho lost their lifes! Therefore I say: Make Love, Not War! Have ga great day, Ute
It's easy to forget those who serve, have served, and sacraficed all, when we fill our weekend with barbeque and beer. Thanks for giving us all pause to remember these brave men and women.
