Got word Friday, The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts in Ybor City, Fl, has accepted all 5 of my entries for the upcoming "The Soldier's Lens" exhibition. The first here will be printed and framed, the others will be part of a Digital in-Gallery Presentation. They received 529 entries and will show as many as possible given space and time considerations. You have seen all these before, but these are the final cleaned up files. I can't wait!

Printed and framed:

(5,464 posts)I think I must be partial to black & white photos, but especially when the subject is somebody working. I really like that one.

(261 posts)Thank you for sharing. I was just headed out /in to this world (literally) when this was happening. Grew up watching M.A.S.H., had family members who were there and almost sent there, but this is an amazing glimpse at the true story. Surreal and almost haunting to see it now in this way, being older and more aware of the history than I was as a child. Much appreciation for the gift of seeing these images. Beautiful dog too.
