I Heart Faces Week 9-Adult Entry



This is my entry for Week 9 "Creative Cropping". I wanted the soldier's feet to span the photograph and I wanted a nice, defined area to put the Bible verse. I played with contrast and changed to B & W to give it a more dramatic look.

Straight-out-of-camera shot.

This is beautiful in black and white. I really like the way you added text to the open area of the photo.
