"A Haunting Memory"

By Scott Michael Anna

 

"In picking this theme I was looking for a photo that was part of this summer's travels. A defining moment that touched you or left an image so strong it was hard to forget. I think Scott captured it with this capture. It is an image that stays with you, defines a moment of a summer trip I'm sure you won't soon forget. Congratulations Scott!"  - Christa Rompala
