For Memorial Day, where we honor those that have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country,  I visited the Southeastern Wisconsin Vietnam Veterans Memorial.  The three Wausau Red Granite columns stand 22, 26, and 30 feet high and represent those killed in action, POW/MIA(s), and those returned home.   There are five granite benches (not pictured) that represent the 5 branches of the military.

I just want to say thank you to all who have served, whether in time of war or in time of peace.  We owe our Freedom to you.

Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros - it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo. In the end, it is all about telling compelling stories.
