Kansas City is home to the official national World War I Museum located at Liberty Memorial. The limestone obelisk and twin sphinx shielding their eyes draws in tourists from all over the country, like the couple in our Pic of the Week.
Pitch Flickr Pool member Denzil Burriss caught this moment while trying to get a photo of Union Station and downtown KC.
While getting ready to take a picture of the monument's relief, Buriss noticed a couple wandering
at the top of the stairs holding hands. He asked the
couple, in town from Colorado, to stay where they were for a photo.
"Neither
knew there was a [World War I] Memorial in KC but were very impressed.
As
a bit of serendipity, the fellow in the photo is a USMC Gunny Sergeant.
We traded email addresses, chatted a bit over e-mail, and I sent them a
copy of the photo."
Burriss' photo is just one of many great
pics in The Pitch's
