To All My YT Anglophile Friends.... :) The Sea of Poppies at The Tower of London....makes my heart smile :) BBC News - In pictures: The poppies at the Tower of London Sally xx |
Absolutely beautiful. At first I thought they were real. |
I thought they were real, too. Thank you for sharing this with us. I have been fascinated by Great Britain for years and count the one week I was able to spend in London among the best experiences of my life! |
Heartbreaking to realize the pain and loss that sea of poppies represent but what a wonderful tribute to your war dead. |
Just beautiful, thank you for sharing. |

Wow, that is BEAUTIFUL and touching! |
:) A stunning sight, isn't it....a surreal experience though. It's like looking down on a terrible river of blood. There are thousands of people there, but there is hardly a sound...everyone is so respectful. It is stunning and poignant, but amazingly beautiful, too. |

'Normally' we too have the paper poppies that our war veterans sell, they're made not too far away from where I live - Jobs for Ex Military | Armed Forces Recruitment | Poppy Factory UK They've done this as well this year as it's the 100 year anniversary - and a wonderful tribute it is, too :) I had a look on The Tower of London website for you, but unfortunately all the ceramic ones have now been sold - sorry, I would have got one for you and posted it over, trust me to just miss out on stuff....:rolleyes: :D |
Beautiful and powerful tribute to those who gave all. |
How beautiful!! |
