Those are cool pictures but I think Bigmck is right lets not forget those who died on this day 68 years ago. Because if we forget about what our Grand parents went threw now the children of the furutre will think WWII was just some video game we played.

I use a Magnum.
For some it was Grandparents, and for others it was our Fathers. . .yes this is a day to remember.

Still love the photos of the earth, and space station. It was the end of WWII that brought us the ability to put together beautiful pictures like these so far posted. :)
