moving…sad but he’s got a sweet face:)

Great image, evocative and emotive. Love this portrait and capture. thanks for sharing with the Art of the Middle East group.

Stunning portrait. It’s like being in two places at one time. His environment says one thing and the touching expression on his face says something completely different. It’s beautiful.

That’s s a real man….......God bless you and yours

this is awesome, I think this is one of the best Anzac related captures, perfect capture by the way

Beautiful portrait Phillip.

And his service shall not go in vain, as brave deeds need no words the expression upon their faces and their souls tell us all of the sacrifices untold

Great portrait…moving, beautiful, you’ve captured his soul…

thank you all,.. whats Anzac ? (dairygirl)

I bet he was…

perfect capture, makes me think how lucky I am

Phillip, excellent capture of your mate’s mood, I guess most soldiers experience these thoughts.

it just near brings tears to my eyes in an instant ..

That is very touching…. well done… like the tone… :-)

WHAT CAN I SAY. JUST GREAT.

brilliant…..i just want to take him to my bosom and soothe his troubled brow oh bless him! Can i take him home with me…... oh pleeeease?

ANZAC stands for Australian New Zealand Army Corp, and Aussies have a public holiday called ANZAC day to honour soldiers

wonderful capture! The slant of his eyes show memories going through his mind and his mouth shows the sadness. you’ve captured alot in this shot

FANTASTIC!

captivating

It’s sad that he must be thousands of miles from home, in a dangerous land and missing his family. I thank him and all other military personnel for the sacrifices they make..may you all return safely to your families.

what a lovely image

Another powerful image, you’ve captured so much feeling here

Seperation is such a hard thing…. Very moving portrait.

Moving…. I hope my Husband had this look on his face when he went away….. it puts a tear in my eye.

( to further explain ANZAC … the original ANZACS were WW1, but we Aussies now tend to affectionately refer to all our soldiers as ANZACS or “Diggers”. )

there are simply no words for the surreal intensity of your shots. ‘amazing’ is an understatement.

very moving capture Phill…......beautfiul work..anna ; )

Hi Phillip – you have my absolute respect – this is a wonderful portrait that left me a bit teary and emotional (army wife – lol) – well captured – Stay Safe!!!

Wonderful capture!

shame man, it most be emotional being away from family, could never imagine not seeing my husband every day….. I am so blessed not to live in the midst of war.

No words necessary really, however I’ve got to say it’s such a poignant and emotive image and so well taken….........
