Description


While walking through an old cemetery in Maine on an October afternoon, during the late afternoon hours, I discovered this chair along side the flag-marked graves of veterans...... A thought-provoking and powerful scene.

It is thought provoking and powerful Jeff. What an extraordinary find this is and it does have a story to tell. I think of someone sitting there, talking to a loved one, perhaps thanking them all for their service, letting them know they are not forgotten. All the elements that make a picture beautiful are there, but is that emotional story that tugs at our hearts Jeff. #11658572
