Thank you all for your feedback on this image. I know the theme called for a top-down shot, but, I felt like this angle would be a little more effective since it includes two more aspects of life in Iraq that may have slipped by the average eye...the bunker in which it is all proped, and the sandbags at the bottom.
Again, thank you so much for your support and feedback. Support makes our job over here possible, without it, we would all be lost. -

It's good to see your Bible, as this wheapon is not carnal but powerful to the pulling down of strongholds.
Our son is in Iraq as well. He's in the band that is touring right now. Plays bass. His wife, our daughter-in-law is living with us and is about to deliver a son. If you ever cover the band from Washington State, (Fort Louis I think) please see him.
I like all your pictures, thanks for your service. -
