Korean War Remembered

Over the Memorial Day weekend I had the opportunity to work for the Department of Defence photographing the Korean War Memorial progam that was held at the Orland Park Civic Center.  My dad was a WW2 vet and I know how much attention those vets received and to think that there is hardly 5 years between those wars. It was a hot day but a really nice event. There is more info on the DoD’s face book page, DoD 60th.  There are more event coming to the area, if you know of any Korean War Vets, let them know about the facebook site.

I stand still or move slowly, feeling things like the impulse of shapes, the direction of lines, the quality of surfaces. I frame with my eye (sometimes with my hands) as the ground glass would frame. Nothing that one could reasonably call thinking is taking place at this stage. The condition is total absorption; the decision (a picture!) is spontaneous. – Aaron Siskind, 1955
