We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace. –William Ewart Gladstone

 

Yes, this week photo challenge theme is MERGE, I read the article about the merge to me as a photojournalist merge meaning to different entries into one. I think my war and peace picture is the perfect for the theme about the merge.

I took this picture in my living room, suddenly I saw throw my window four fighters aircraft flies on the sky instant, I compose my frame with bird sit on the wall. Finally when I saw my picture I am really happy to see my picture  and think maybe it is the perfect picture of WAR & PEACE.
