One last Remembrance Sunday display: photographs projected onto the clock tower of Bradford City Hall to commemorate the centenary of the signing of the Armistice that ended the First World War. I'd read about this display so I popped into town to see it. It included photos of servicemen from across the Commonwealth, including some of the Bradford Pals (16th and 18th battalion, Yorkshire Regiment), interspersed with cascading poppies. It was conceived by Bradford artist Steve Manthorp, with support from Bradford Council and technical companies for the illumination.
That was a great idea for Remembrance Day. They do amazing things with light these days. You did well with the shutter speed.
ReplyDeleteTricky to photograph but well worth the effort.
ReplyDeleteYou did a fine job, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully taken!
ReplyDeleteThe falling poppies motif was used on our Centre Block, while the projection machine itself had screens flashing images of servicemen and women down through time.
