Peadar Whelan, our walking tour guide from Coiste , an organization of/for former IRA prisoners. At the rear of the Garden of Remembrance in the Falls Road is a monument in memory of the volunteers of D Company who died of natural causes. The mural behind shows a map of how the area looked at the time of the curfew of 1970, when dozens of little streets intersected throughout the area, making it possible for people to run through from one street to another when fleeing the police or the army. Soon after, the British government undertook "slum clearance" and knocked down swaths of housing, replacing it with council housing and a new street pattern of many dead ends without the through streets.

Installation in the moat at the Tower of London of 888,246 poppies, in commemoration of the British and Commonwealth dead during World War I. The ceramic poppies were "planted" by volunteers over many weeks -- the first being planted on the day that WWI broke out and the last on Armistice Day (November 11). I was there in early September -- about 1/2 way through the installation. By the weekend leading up to Armistice Day, the crowds were so thick that it was hard to see into the moat, which was by then solid red.

Installation in the moat at the Tower of London of over 800k poppies, in commemoration of the British and Commonwealth dead during World War I. Designed by ceramic artist Paul Cummins, the installation was named after a poem, written by a soldier who died in the trenches, and discovered by Cummins in a Chesterfield library.
