This shot has become one of my favorites from a series of pictures I took while visiting Memento Park outside of Budapest. I wrote a blog about the experience. Check it out above.

It’s an Extreme Close Up (ECU) of the Róbert Kreutz Memorial Plaque. By all accounts Mr. Kreutz was a rank and file communist member who was executed for resisting the Nazis during WWII. I can respect resisting Nazis... After his death at 22 however, he was celebrated by the communist regime as a martyr who gave his life fighting for the communist cause. I’m sure the blindfold refers to him before a firing squad, but for me there was an unavoidable a metaphor jumping out at me.
