Waddesdon Manor - Standing with Giants

An extract as follows -
“To commemorate Remembrance the silhouettes of 400 life-size soldiers, sailors and aviators are displayed within the parkland at Waddesdon alongside 250 poppy wreaths to form a striking art installation, the largest Standing with Giants installation in the UK. Visitors will be able to walk through parts of the artwork, amongst soldiers lining the gravel walking path. The display continues upon Spring Hill. It will provide a meaningful space to visit, reflect and connect within the natural landscape. Created in partnership with Standing With Giants, this community-based project works to raise understanding and appreciation of our freedom and to remember and pay tribute to those who gave their lives so we could live ours today.”

This is truly awe-inspiring and an emotional display in the grounds of Waddesdon Manor. I have already taken lots and lots of photos of the display on different days. For sure, I will be uploading some more photos.

Probably better to view on black, please :-)

For 'Sight and Sound' I was thinking of war songs but then I thought that, perhaps, one day there will be peace in this world. Unlikely I know. But, I have chosen "Peace Train" by Dolly Parton with Ladysmith Black Mamboza.
