A series of prints submitted to the Bruce Wilson Memorial Competition 2017 ; a competition held annually at the RA Photo Club in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Photographs were taken during a trip to Poland in 2015. Auschwitz is a short distance from Krakow, Poland. An estimated 1.3 million people were sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp from 1940-1944, of whom at least 1.1 million died. In 1979 Auschwitz-Birkenau was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

De 1940-1944, plus de 1,1 millions ont péri dans ce camp d’extermination qui se situe aux environs de Cracovie en Pologne. En 1979, l’UNESCO classa Auschwitz « site du patrimoine de l’humanité», ce qui signifie que la Pologne s’engage à le préserver pour les générations futures.
