Mom and Dad

I took this photo the day after my father's funeral. The flag on the bed covered his casket.
My mom didn't know this picture was taken, and I forgot I had taken it until this photo assignment came up.

    Excellent image, very powerful. I have made it a favorite and to others that may seem odd but, it is a reminder of memories that are too important to let fade away.
