Honor

Description

From Bellevue, Nebraska’s annual 9-11 memorial service and naturalization ceremony. I’ve been one of the “official” photographers for the event, for the last 7 years. This year, over 300 people attended, to include several Omaha TV outlets. The service honored those that were killed in during the terrorist attack in 2001, plus all the Nebraska and eastern Iowa military members that have been killed in subsequent years, in support of military operations in SW Asia. The service also included a naturalization ceremony for over 50 new US citizens.

Exif: F Number: 4.5, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/160 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 3200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 105.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
