Pathway of Remembrance

The shoes in this shot represent the Iraqi civilians that were killed in the war. Considering the amount of people at this exhibit, I was struck by the image of the solitary figure of an old woman walking down the isle of shoes.

I had a difficult time shooting at this event. There were a *ton* of

photographers. I constantly felt like I was getting in everyone's

way. Of course, whenever I composed a shot, people would step into my

FOV anyway. :) How do you deal with this (in a nice way)?

 

Anyway, I'll post more shots from this set when I get the chance. Enjoy!

perfect for a photo report type of shot. I got the point even without reading the description. well done

Funny,and excellent composition

I was there and yeah, lots of people at this event. It was very hard to compose a shot when people kept cutting in front of you every second.

Thanks for the feedback! I was a little surprised by Jean Luc's response though. I didn't even think of it as a "funny" shot since the event was so somber, but taken out of context, I can see a little bit of the humor. :)
