    Lest we forget

    In Flanders Field

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields.

    Re: Lest we forget

    As some of you may or may not know i'm doing a photography 365 project which is basically a photo a day for a year!! i've been keeping an eye out lately on my local travels for poppies growing or something similar but nothing so i went out this morning in the hope of getting something for today's photo..... it needed a bit of work to finish it though.

    I hope I speak for everyone when I say what today means to us.

  • This Site needs Your Help!

I marked where the originals where and removed them. Due to the replacement floor it was just a matter of un-bolting th...
