Urban Scene

This is a redone version of a photo I entered maybe a year ago. This scene was photographed outside a gallery of portraits of firefighters. A candlelight ceremony had just been held a block away near the rubble from a warehouse conflagration that snuffed out the lives of two firefighters. These are the children of the artist who painted the portraits.
