Graceful Elegance
Uploaded: October 27, 2011
Taken at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington Cemetery. Every hour they have a changing of the guard ceremony which is full of military pomp and dignity. This is the amphitheater directly behind the tomb and where official ceremonies are held. It is absolutely exquisite and if you didn't know better you would think you are in Greece.
