Description A Polish veteran in ... eh... well, I can look it up for you, if you want. Maybe it was Slupsk. Extremely nice guy.

It's a bit small because I got it from an account of mine on a site where they stampify your photos. I got a bigger copy elsewhere, if someone is interested. It's very much copyrighted though.

Update: I was able to access the original file and post a larger size. Also I cropped the sides and added a border.

Thanks so much for featuring

Thank almighty GOD, that i finally found you Eric. I knew i had seen this photo sometime in May, i'm so pleased that i stopped to see one of your new photos. That's when i saw this one & wow i felt like a i hit a pot of gold. This sure did make my morning & will also make my night.
I Love & Adore this photo and i just had to / "A Man with a Hat" [link] and add it to my fav gallery so that all of my family, friends, all the clubs (members) that i'm in & my own private club members. That they all may also enjoy this grand photo as much as i do.
Thank you so much for taking this photo. I see so much from this exquisite photo, but that would take me forever & a day to express to you.
I truly wish i had so much more time to fav alot of your photos, sorry about that.

I wish you all the very best in the art world & beyond!!!.

No comment or reply needed, i respect how busy you are as an artist & a person.
Also for now your welcome

Yours Truly,
Ms. P.

Hello Ms. P.,

Thanks for your kind message and comment! Emotion and meaning are all that art's about, so I'm glad this picture means so much to you, and it's nice and encouraging to tell me so. If the picture has any quality, it owes it all to that guy, but I must say, it's one of the pictures in my work that's special to me too.

EricForFriends In reply to TheLoneGunmen [2008-05-26 20:17:25 +0000 UTC]

I've been to the length and width of it - from Wroclaw to AugustΓ³w and from Przemysl to Szczecin. What's more, I know how to pronounce Szczecin, makes me an expert, I guess. And yes, I found some parts that I liked.

He was sort of hovering around when I visited a church and I wondered if I should take him, but felt uncertain if he'd like it. Actually, it transpired, he'd have been deeply unhappy if I had left without saving him for posterity. If I ever get back there, I'm going to show his picture in the book.
