Thank you so very much for the lovely review Brian, and also for the 6 stars. I visited this Place in December 10 years ago, and it was a blizzard this day. How could prisoner survive these weather conditions ? I will never forget this visit.

Comment from Sange
Beyond emotive and so Apropos for this anniversary date. I have many patients who are survivors and their stories are haunting. Last night on the public station they had a documentary on Auschwitz. It was so hard to watch.
This is a fine capture with great use of natural light and darkness.
Powerful capture with a strong message we should NEVER forget.
Nice work Cara!

Comment from cleo85
Your symbolism is remarkable. The simplicity of composition is striking.
The darkness evidently means death in the gas chambers, but the light means hope. The mixed media creation is perfectly composed. The creation is a memorial for the victims of the concentration camps, but also a reminder for us, who are living now and the generations which follow us. Together with your excellent comments this creation leaves a deep emotional impact on the viewer, especial when own family members were or are affected.

Comment from nikman
A very topical image posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us a good look at one of the rooms in that awful place. It looks to be very neat and tidy. Bet it did not look that 75 years ago. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Wonder where you got the image from? Nicely done!

Thank you so much for the lovely review Nikman. I took this photo myself when I visited Auschwits 10 years ago. A visit I will never forget because of the ever lasting strong impression.

Wow, never occurred to me that you had actually been there!
Comment from allanoak
Wow, what a gripping image and story. One wonders how mankind can have such evil tendencies! You would think that those who remember history would never again produce such atrocities. But, I am afraid I am wrong.
I like the contrast you have in this image. The dark room and barracks showing despair and agony contrasts with the light coming through the window offering some type of hope.
Can you images and night without lights in these barracks? Cold, crowded, starving, fearful, dirty.
This is surely an epic photo! Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Angus Plummer
I really felt a lot of mood in this image.
Great composition.
Soft lighting adds to a gloomy environment. The window and it's reflection of light seems to add some hope to the dark reality.

Comment from Deloralock
This is beautiful work. I visited Dachou and all the photos I took were slides. This photo reminded me immediately of Ann Frank. This must have been her view of the camp; She had hope till the end when she died in the camp.I have written some poems about the experience one of which is titled "Let We Forget It's in my portfolio on Fan Story. You did a perfect job on this carefully composed and excellentlly lighted work.

Comment from Pat Groleau
Another amazing picture. You have really stirred up the consciousness (sp) of the war with your pictures, for that I thank you. The picture is excellent. The perspective is excellent. Just enough light to make it look as it was. (Depressing). Thanks for the picture.

Excellent composition with a good centre of interest, the lighting and colour are very good. The focus is pin sharp and shows amazing detail. It has great impact and has been presented well.
