For Camera-Critters
After the ANZAC Day commemoration (posted here and here) at the Jerusalem War Cemetery, Bird and I were just about the only living souls left out there in the noonday sun..
Bird left the tombstone and ascended.
Bird came to rest atop the Cross of Sacrifice, a symbol that stands in all the British military cemeteries throughout the world.

Those are really great shots! I especially like the first one.

ReplyDeleteA beautiful series, Dina.
ReplyDeleteDina, «Louis» appreciates your posting this memorial to those who "gave all".
ReplyDeleteIn a similar vein:
Flag Day
The Admirals
Left and ascended! How appropriate

Great composition. I especially like the one of the bird taking flight...echoing the idea of a soul taking flight from the body.
ReplyDeleteMagical moments you share (as usual)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dina

You and Mr. Crow took some great photos! Reminds me that I better hustle to get a Memorial Day photo for Monday ...
ReplyDeleteNice photos and post!
ReplyDeleteSadly that's the first time I hear of this day so thank you for introducing it.
ReplyDeleteThat ascending crow shot is so iconic and great.
Love the middle shot of the bird taking off!
ReplyDeleteHello from Toronto! Hubby dear decided to sleep early, so I get to use his laptop tonight. At least, until the laundry's done. ;)
Your bird friends seem to enjoy posing for you in the most meaningful (and delightful) ways. What do you think they know?
ReplyDeleteA black raven is very symbolic for this place of mourning and loneliness.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful captures of nature and man. What a beautiful trio.
