Lone Soldier

The first word I thought of was Epic. I thought of the soldier walking back from a mission but he was the only one who could still walk back. The photographer of this photo makes good use of the mist/fog that is flowing past the soldier as he walks back. He uses the rule of thirds because the soldiers center is placed about a third of the way down and to the left. I also think that if this wasn't black and white it wouldn't be as epic. The lack of color makes it more dramatic. The photographer of this photo did a good job of capturing the moment at the right time.
