A Cross...


A Cross..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

May 2008
I took this at Arlington National Cemetery on my trip to Washington DC last weekend. Single Cross on a hill. I saw this lonely cross on the hill with the blue sky and wondered who he was and what he died for.

What war was he in? How did he get such a big and profound gravestone? ? I thought that the black and white photo would bring out the texture. It also makes you wonder what it looked like in color. Death is not color; this photo is black and white. Death is not colorful, but kind of gray like this photo…
