Description War has changed... Old SoldierS never die; they just fade away.

Soldiers may be used as tools, but they nonetheless are human.
We sometimes tend to forget that they have faces as well.
Since you emphasize on that soldier's face in particular, people hopefully are going to remember that again.

A ghost of a soldier long dead and forgotten. Or so was the plan.

Everything about this is just beautiful, down to the soldier himself. He reminds me of a ghost. . .some man who fell in the desert and just came back and haunts the place he died. Or maybe the rest of his brothers in their dreams.

Have you by any chance seen the movie Dreams? The dream where an officer comes back from war and sees the soldiers in the platoon he had been commanding, who don't know that they are all dead.
Your photo so reminds me of that. Another job well done!

The eyes make the soldier seem very cold blooded. Hesitation doesn't seem to belong into his vocabulary. Nice shot!

Thank you my friend. People often seldom say that my eyes are unaturally blue. If the eyes are a winow into the soul, Than my shades are down.

Tapola In reply to MRBee30 [2011-04-21 21:21:30 +0000 UTC]

You are very welcome.

It's you in the photograph? You got one of the best shade of blue I've ever seen. Be proud of the eyes you've born with.

Your eyes definitely show the way into your soul. The question is what we see through them.

Reading through some of your comments, I'll definitely hand it to you. You've captured quite a story, and one that's probably different for everyone who views this.

Wow. This looks really nice, but if I was going to nitpick, the one thing i would probably say is that the guy looks a little too clean, but maybe that was the style you were going for

Great work anayway!

Meredyth [2011-03-24 08:53:52 +0000 UTC]

Good shot! The face and expression really is reminiscent of some photographies of young WW! soldiers.
Citation a mixture of William Lloyd Garrison and Martin Luther King, took me a while to put it together. It fits fine.

Of course. I read a lot of memorable quotes and sayings quite often. By doing so my word library has increased, For poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

like the old soldier in that ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the sight to see that duty. Thank you my friend.

random-anomaly [2011-03-22 20:21:02 +0000 UTC]

I find the concept of a badass emo soldier a little silly. The emotional range is broader than "unbearable inner anguish". I'd like to see your stuff branch out a bit, but maybe that's just me.

Soullessdestiny [2011-03-22 19:53:56 +0000 UTC]

Your so amazing, the paleness and dark eyes made my mind first jump to vampire. Then I saw your quote and though maybe vampire solider? >_> I'm sorry, my mind what can I say. But as stated previously this picture is very daunting indeed. I would be intimidated if I saw you walking towards me like this.

And I completely agree that our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. Its really a shame to be honest that the world is in this state.

*licks your face* oh and did I mention this is a great picture?
