Gone – Not Forgotten
Paul Breden - Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall
On a recent trip to DC member Paul Breden captured this unique view of the “The Wall”. It could be considered “photojournalism” in that it manages to tell a complete story of not only the physical monument itself but also the emotional impact on the visitors as they solemnly pass. Paul took advantage of the highly polished and reflective stone to get the names of those remembered in sharp focus while the background is softly diffused but still clearly recognizable.
