Great set of photos, and not just for the history.  Some truly outstanding 
compositions.  Love the kids looking at the guards.  Could you perhaps, off 
list if you like, include some commentary as to what is happening in those 
shots with the people.  Looks like some were perhaps crossing?  I would love 
to know more.
