In World War 1 this landscape was soon turned into a sea of mud, with the trees reduced to shattered stumps. The strange thing to me was that my mind went back to an earlier conflict on Belgium soil - the Battle of Waterloo. The neat ranks of the ripening maize reminded me of the columns of French infantry toiling up another hill, around La Haye Sainte farm, against the fire of the British artillery.

These figures stand at the back of the wooded cemetery. They are very simple shapes, bare-headed and holding their helmets. Beyond them is one of the many fields of maize, common in the Belgium countryside. The bright sunshine was coming from behind them as they faced into the wooded cemetery, so the resulting photos are not so good. This group of photos was scanned from negatives, with a budget scanner.
