The faces of some of the uprights have traditional New Zealand symbols, some ships and aeroplanes and some verse.

Scott, that’s the Australian War Memorial. It’s a stunning creation.
The small text is the home towns of those lost in war. Individual letters of the towns have been emboldened to spell out various campaigns/battles. There’s usually water running down the face of the right-hand portion, which adds another texture to the memorial.

At this time of year I usually have a wander around some of London’s memorials. Some of them look particularly moving after dark, the light and shadows lend a different atmosphere. Here are the first few photos I’ve processed from this evening’s wanderings.

Yes. Once. At the Battle of Britain memorial on the embankment. But i wasn’t crying for anyone on there. I was crying for someone who’d sponsored one name and who was never to see it. I placed a poppy there for him and from him.
Taken that night (ignore the watermark date):

I won’t mention anything about what happened to the back wall of the MOD.
