This is another great shot in action, I see alot of good war images in your portfolio. I like how these soldiers are framed inside the remains of this wall.. not use of the wall for framing and soldiers use it for cover. nice composition...

great shot Chuck I love how these walls and debre help make a photo very well composed good action shot, I'm not on UF all the time at the moment I do look sometimes but not commenting just incase you don't hear from me for a while keep up the good work I'll be back on track soon, hopefully and I'm still looking regards Trace..

Excellent exposure with a nice composition and good details, I don't think I could produce any good images your circumstances, well done

If you don't mind me asking, I'm curious do you use more than one camera when your out in the action?

Susan,

Thank-you for your postive comments. To answer your question I try to travel as light as possible - I only carry on me one camera, a lens (28-200mm), Flash and the Night Owl device. However in my bag I have an extra camera, two other lens, a laptop computer and another flash. Also I carry a lot of memory cards with me.

When we (Combat Cameramen) go out on mission we try and travel in two-man teams...one will shoot video - the other stills. FYI - are teams also have females in them as well - and they are in the fight just like us.

Best Wishes,
Chuck

Excellent one Chuck! The men framed by the "curved" wall, the wall height seems to follow the soldiers' height, reinforcing the curve. Excellent detail in the shade and on the walls, excellent picture! Best regards, Ina

Ina,

Thank-you for the postive feed back. Also I really like your photo titled "Grand River Scene 1" The clouds seemed to moving along with the river.

Best Wishes,
Chuck
