So this is a picture my friend took of her dog Bear. I really like how she managed to blur out most of the picture except for the edges and how his collar is still blue. She's really into photography and I really like what she's done with this.

Here's a picture I took while at a lake. I don't remember which one. Basically I just messed around with it and tried different things and I really liked this set up with the sky and water still blue and everything else black and white. I thought it added a nice touch.

Remembering D-Day

Today I was browsing through the BBC website just trying to keep in touch with current events and I stumbled across this picture. It was part of gallery put together to remember the 65th Anniversary of D-Day. There were other pictures showing several world leaders and veterans but something about this picture caught my attention more so than the others. I think that the way the person is in focus and the tombstones lined behind her are not. Also the way the flag is blowing and how it lines up perfectly with one of the markers. Overall I just get this very patriotic yet somber attitude from it and I think it really captures what the moment is about.
