This week there seems to be a theme at the Mono Monday site.....Emotion. The challenge is to capture any emotion of your choice. I sort of copied the Gator man and went for a remembrance theme. The emotion is "Sorrow".
The photo is of my Dads eldest brother Ron, who was in the Royal navy and drowned at sea after falling from the rigging of his ship during a storm. I have merged it with a photo of the Portsmouth War Memorial, where his death is commemorated. Below are his details from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. I did this in Photoshop Elements, but not too sure what I did exactly! I'm still learning as you can see!
