Double your looking pleasure with this reflection of the Arizona Memorial. It really is a moving experience to visit such an historic place in person. I definitely recommend it if you have the chance.
Note on the architecture: The designer of the memorial stated that it sags in the middle to represent the difficult times the US went through during WWII but the edges sweep up to the sky to represent our eventual victory.

Such a pretty reflection! And love the arcing line of that building! Lovely photo!
ReplyDeleteSo that's what the memorial looks like! There was no way to tell with your photo yesterday. ;)
ReplyDeleteVery interesting shape. Of course, I want to ask the architect why it's shaped that way. ;)
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Halcyon!

ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful photo of the Arizona Memorial. Well done my friend. And thanks for stopping by my playground :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the finest shots of this memorial that I've ever seen. Just beautiful, Halcyon. (Your new camera helped? You never said what kind of camera you bought)...
ReplyDeleteDespite «Louis'» interest in World War II history, particularly WWII Naval history, «Louis» has not been to Hawaii and thus has never seen the Arizona memorial.
