Uriah Heep The Park

Music: The Park Uriah Heep IndianSummer, FallImages from the Botanical Gardens and SlottsskogenPark in Gothenburg, Sweden. For years I took Uriah Heep s The Park as just a beautiful song about a beautiful park. Only while working on this little imageshow did I realize that the song is in memory of a young man who died in a needless war. I came to think of a young man who suffered this fate and had a memorial plaque in this very park I was taking my pictures. David was a young Swede who went to New York to work for a while at a company located high up in the World Trade Center. He did not survive the terror attacks on September 11th 2001. I dedicate this little imageshow to him as one of the many youngsters whose dreams do not soar any longer since their lives were cut short by needless war and senseless violence.
