i actually did this picture a few months but becuz this thing was so damn big i obviously couldn''t fit it into my scanner. but luckily a month ago i went to fedex and got this thing copied several times and got one copy of it shrunk down to regular size.

anyway, this picture is very famous. on june 6 1944, a war photogropher named robert cappa shot over 106 pictures at omaha beach for time life magizine. unfortunately only 8 of those pictures survied becuz the water destroyed the film. this is the most famous of the 8, becuz it symbolizes the fact that it was chaotic and you can only imagine what is happening in front of him. also, as it fades farther into history, we forget that these sacrifices were ever made. i want to keep that history alive.

i hope you like it!!! :)

p.s. yes it's supposed to be garbled looking and scratchy, for the picture looks the same way.
