"And So We Left Them"



This is an image for a possible solar etching digitally "re-purposed" from a small pencil drawing (below) I did in Korea,1952 of a Chinese POW waiting to be admitted to the field hospital (UN POW Camp #1, Koje-do). The title reflects a personal feeling about the transitory nature of our contact with prisoner-patients. They come, get tagged for admission (my job), then they go....
The two images are different each with its own qualities; I'd be interested in how you see them or feel about the different versions.
