This is an image of Louisiana National Guard leaving for Iraq in 2004. Taken with a Canon/Kodak DCS 520 a 2 megapixel camera. Exposure was 1/160th f5.6 ISO 200. Hopefully I get the prize for oldest camera in the contest.

The emotion comes through loud and clear especially on the girl's face. Hope he made it home safely.
He did. It was picked up by MSNBC's Pictures of the Year and they did an interview with his wife about the photo.
Thanks for that info.
While other photos may be technically better, with more thought and planning put into them, for me, this is the only image that has any emotional impact. Great photo! BTW, my 1982 Canon new F1 just pips you for possibly oldest camera :-)
Thanks. I came close to entering a photo from my F1 too.
