I have taken some photos during the graveside portion of an uncles funeral. He was a veteran, a receiptent of the purple heart and so on and the honor guard was there and they had a gun salute. It was very moving and the photos where especially intimate. I gave them to my cousins (his sons) and my aunt and they were very grateful. I used my 300mm and stood quite a ways back from the proceedings as to not ruin the moment.
