Mothers Crying for the Loss of Their Sons

Photo Information

One of the series shot on the little Isle of Tears in Minsk. The Isle of Tears is on the lake next to the lower old town bearing a colossal monument commemorating over 700 Belarusian soldiers died in the lengthy conflict in Afghanistan.

Thank you all folks for your kind comments on my previous image and your best wishes for the New Year!

Yes, poignant is the word. Nicely modulated tones and well-chosen POV.
