A very pleasing shot, Alex. Lovely shallow focus.
Best wishes,

A great shot and title, DOF and compo works very well and I like the cool colour tones.

And I did think this before I read it was inspired by my shot in the comp.

It's like one of those poignant end of the battle pictures from WWII films

Very nice, dark foreboding tones brings to mind a POW camp.

Great shot. I like the composition, the DOF and the greenish mono effect.
