Last night I was fortunate enough to document the “Unconditional Surrender Kiss Statue” before it was dismantled and shipped away this morning. I used the sun as back lighting on the statue which gave me a strong silhouette of the couple. With a lot of trial, error and over 40 strobed lighting shots, I was able to compose the final image. Enjoy.
Workers today began removing the statue of a sailor kissing a nurse near the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum on San Diego’s downtown waterfront. The 25-foot-tall sculpture, called “Unconditional Surrender,” is based on the iconic 1945 Life magazine cover photo taken in New York’s Time Square when the end of World War II was announced. It’s a popular place for amorous tourists to replicate the kiss and take photographs. ”Unconditional Surrender” was loaned to San Diego in 2007 by the Sculpture Foundation and is headed for New Jersey, where it will undergo maintenance before the Santa Monica-based foundation loans it to another city. The roughly 6,000-pound sculpture and its 24,000-pound base will be shipped aboard two flatbed trucks, according to the Port of San Diego.

This is one of the small statues created by Seward Johnson based on the famous Alfred Eisenstaedt photograph taken on V-J Day in Times Square. The sculpture is/was in front of the USS Iowa Battleship docked in San Pedro, Los Angeles, CA. It is called "unconditional surrender" and the sculptor says he actually based it on a similar photograph taken by Victor Jorgenson.

In the four days I was in San Diego, this was the only thing I got to see that was remotely tourist-y. Replicas of this piece have been all over the world, but this is a permanent, bronze one that was installed in 2013.
From Wikipedia:
"Unconditional Surrender is a series of sculptures by Seward Johnson resembling a photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt, V–J day in Times Square, but said by Johnson to be based on a similar, less well known, photograph by Victor Jorgensen. The original statue was first installed in Sarasota, Florida, then was moved to San Diego, California and New York City. Other versions have been installed in Hamilton, New Jersey; Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; and Normandy, France."

PLS READ THIS:
The cross speaks of Love,Grace,and Hope.
Have you ever ask yourself this question?
" If i would to die today..Where would I go?Heaven or Hell?"
Uncertain about it?Think u can go heaven just b'cause you did alot of good works?or u are you thinking that you are too bad or sinful to go heaven?
But here's a fact...there is a way and only one way to heaven.If you want to know the way to heaven there is only 1 answer...
The answer is Jesus..
Now you may ask why do i believe him..but i can testify honestly and truthfully that He has really change my life..a real and significant change.
God is every bit as real as you are.Though He's invisible He moving,touching the lives of many and bringing hope with everlasting and unconditional love to all people who seek him.
We are sinners who deserve to be severely punish by God b'cause all of us have sinned(whether we lied or swear or lust or any other sin) Its not a matter of who have sin less but its a matter of whether we HAVE sinned even once before..therefore we deserve to go hell because of those SINS just as every criminal needs to go to jail...Agree?
Sad isn't it?
However....
Here comes the solution...
~~~~~~~~~GOD LOVES YOU~~~~~~~~~~
and He wants to save you from hell too...so..
He send Jesus to die on the Cross so that our sins will be forgiven and cleansed.You see..we are suppose to be punished for our sins since God is a judge and He should punish us right? BUT Jesus took that death for our sins on the cross some 2000+ years ago. God send His son Jesus who is perfect,to be our sacrifice and died for YOU,me and everyone in the world who had exist and will exist in future.It settle everything once and for all..
God redeem us thru His son..
Jesus took our punishment,took our shame and took ALL OUR SINS away..
Honestly God is crazy over you.,.He has been watching over you you even before you were born until you breathe your lst breathe.He loves you..He cares for you..and He wants to establish a relationship with you.he wants you to believe in him..there's no harm isn't it..there is only great joy and freedom in Jesus. He'll set us free!! He now extends his loving hands to you...but the question is would you come to Him?
Tell me,are you really satisfied with your life?do you want your life to change for the better and venture into the future with the creator of the universe,the one who died for you?
if yes,then just say a prayer...there are 2 steps to it.
~~1st admit you're a sinner and that you are WILLING to turn away from your sins..meaning you don't want to follow your bad attitudes and old lifestyle anymore.
~~2nd...you should tell God that you need Him in your life and you're willing to surrender your life to God.It means you seek His help and letting Him help you,making Him the central part of your live,not living as you like.This is the cost of following Him..that is to always surrender and sacrifice some of the things you hold on to in your life..to receive from Him you must let go the things that hinder you from God.There is no cost to you for your salvation, it comes freely to you as a gift from God..yet it comes at a high cost..the new life we live will not be a bed of roses, but it may cost us things in this life that we may hav to give up for His sake..
However do realise that praying this wont make you perfect and things are not perfect always but you can be assured of your salvation because you trust Him.You may still sin but He will be there to help you..PRAYING and BIBLE reading will make you grow more in relationship with God.Just Believe Him even when its really really hard to do so..on a long haul you'll benefit.=)
oh ya..Pls pray wholeheartedly..do not doubt for God will surely hear your prayers and save you no matter who you are or where you are...
Afterall He's loving enough just to wait patiently for you take a leap of faith to believe and come back to Him..don ya think? =).
(If you have accepted Christ,do find a good church to support you)
Thank you to all for your comments, faves, notes and expos!.-

Varcare le soglie della Cattedrale e' come un'elevazione della mente, un itinerario del cuore, ben oltre una visita culturale, e' un viaggio dell'anima...
Crossing the threshold of the Cathedral is like an elevation of the mind, a journey of the heart, far beyond a cultural visit, it is a journey of the soul...

I AM HAVING PC PROBLEMS please excuse for not being able to comment, I am borrowing a laptop at the moment. Thanks for your understanding!
The statue commemorates the famous V-J embrace in Times Square, photographed by Alfred Eisenstaedt. The statue itself has provided some debate on it's "artistic merit" and spent several years being moved from Florida to San Diego to New Jersey and eventually back to San Diego. Given the large veteran population that resides in the greater San Diego area, it seems an appropriate locale.
Love it or hate it, it's a wonderful photo op, is conveniently located near the USS Midway museum and the nearby Fish Market restaurant is fantastic.
