It is July 1916, and these weary men have made the difficult decision to surrender to Canadian troops at Vimy Ridge, France. The composition of the photograph is striking, with a stark contrast between the darkened trenches and the open expanse beyond. These brave soldiers, once filled with determination and loyalty to their cause, now find themselves facing an uncertain future.
