I thought the piece entitled Love and War was incredible. The texture of his voice and the detail of some in the shots really gave his story a character. The picture detailing the wrinkles and crevices in the man’s hand, the one of a younger picture of him, etc. all do a wonderful job of answering questions that the readers are typically thinking. If you have a man who fired machine guns in a war, we try to picture his hands. If an older gentleman is speaking, we try to imagine how he looked when he was younger. I also think this piece captured a real human element: a universal theme. Even if most could never understand the subject's specific story of having to fight a war and then losing his wife with the same kind of by chance occurrence, most people can relate to losing a loved one. This really tugs at the heartstrings and paints a real picture.
