One of the most moving areas within the\u00a0Arlington National Cemetery<\/a>\u00a0is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier<\/a>.\u00a0The monument\u00a0stands atop a hill overlooking our nations Capital. In 1921, the United States Congress approved the burial of an unidentified American soldier from World War I in the plaza of the new Memorial Amphitheater.\u00a0The white marble sarcophagus has a flat-faced form. Sculpted into the east panel which faces Washington, D.C., are three Greek figures representing Peace, Victory, and Valor. \u00a0Inscribed on the back of the Tomb are the words: “Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

As I mentioned in yesterday’s<\/a> post, I had the chance to visit the cemetery during the summer of 2005. Getting a clear shot of\u00a0the monument is very difficult due to the large number of people gathered around the tomb to witness the changing of the guard. So, I decided to go down below and shoot the tomb looking up from the stairs. It worked out great despite missing the bottom half of the building.<\/p>\n

This image was taken with my Canon A2E and my Canon\u00a0EF 28-70mm f\/2.8L II USM Lens<\/a> set on 28mm. The camera was set on Aperture Priority<\/a> mode\u00a0but I did not record all the settings. The film was Kodak T-Max 100 and it was developed in my new darkroom.<\/p>\n
