Canon EOS 30D + Chinon 55mm f/1.4 lens.

Canon EOS 30D and Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm f/2.8 lens. I have isolated and elongated the statue of the soldier and over-exposed the figure to suggest mist. I remain to be convinced that there is any glory in being killed on a battlefield. Perhaps the word is used in an attempt to help the bereaved.

Seen abandoned on a grave in the churchyard of Edington Priory Church. The biro looks like the type available in betting shops. The wooden cross seems to be an orphan from the regular November event. We live in a throwaway, don't tidy up society, where totems and memorabilia have replaced quiet reflection. Canon EOS 30D + Chinon 55mm f/1.4 lens.

The notice on the gate of St. Mary’s Church, Steeple Ashton, calls attention to the 100th anniversary of the death of Private William Arthur Rogers of the Wiltshire Regiment who died of his wounds on 27th March, 1915. Thirty men of Great Hinton and Steeple Ashton died in the First World War and St. Mary’s bell ringers will mark their sacrifice by tolling the bells in solemn respect on the 100th anniversary of the death of each of them. Canon EOS 30D and 18-55 kit lens.
