Default War, what is it good for?

On the way in to work this morning I found something to make my heart soar

fly high

On the way home ..I learned of a loss that makes my heart sore

too early

Beautiful pics. Although I didn't like the message in the 2nd one. I'm sensing bad news on your front.

both beautiful photos, vibrant gorgeous colors... I love them both Ian.

"War, what is it good for?" to answer that... absolutely nothing... and yet it seems it's somehow unavoidably necessary at times....

I'm sorry for your friend's loss

Hi Ian. nice set of photos! The first is definitely a shot you would find in a mag. Nice work with composition, and exposure. Clean.
