The Peaceful Soldier

My Remix project is based on an article that explains a sequence in the recent video game “Call of Duty Black ops.”  I feel that we live in a time that is already subject to too much violence. Currently, various states possess nuclear weapons, extremists are planning terrorist attacks and troops are involved in armed conflict daily. Last thing we need is a fully fledged killing simulator to fill the void. I remixed this screen grab of a soldier wielding a large gun and cropped it out for a bouquet of harmless flowers. Maybe there is more to be learned from this now peaceful photo.
