Vigil
Wednesday, August 17. 2005
Somerville, MA (Aug 17, 2005)
Tonight there was a candle vigil in Davis Sq., organized by MoveOn.org to support Cindy Sheehan, the mother of that soldier killed in Iraq, protesting in front of president Bush’s ranch in Texas. You probably know about her, she is all over the news. Her son is one of the 1,829 American troops, including 31 this month, who have died in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003.
The Move-on web site says that more than 50,000 have signed to attend over 1,600 vigils around the country in solidarity to Cindy Sheehan, to support her and call for an end to the war.

Nice candid here!
It was pouring at ours - so we looked, saw the candles and the mobs of umbrellas, then went on without joining.

Very nice image, and a strong subject. You’ve capture the candle glow perfectly.
me encanta la luz en esta foto, los colores y la exposicion son una maravilla.
Nice image Massimo. The reflected light from the candles is perfect and your exposure is spot on. The subjects (interesting that they are all women) look proud to be standing up for what they think is right.
a very beautiful and moving capture ... thank you for sharing ...
I agree with Graeme - looks like a tough exposure to get just right. You did a very nice job with the lighting here.
