Let’s start this Monday morning off right, with the 90th Infantry Division Pic of the Week. I really love this shot of infantrymen from the 358th Regiment, marching in two columns down a street outside of Perl, Germany. The geometry of the photo is great. I especially like how the two columns angle back, then fade equally into the horizon. In fact, I love this pic so much that I used it on the cover of my second book, EVERYTOWN, USA.
