Lest We Forget

Today I was unable to take in the Remembrance Day Ceremony downtown as I have in the past. However, I did make my way to Beechmount Cemetery that has one of two Military Fields of Honour here in Edmonton.
This cemetery is special to me in that my great uncle who served in the war is buried here. So this is for all of those who gave their lives so we can enjoy our freedom today and for all of those currently serving in various postions around the world

Wonderful tribute.

[Allison Williams]

Beautiful image. Nov. 11 used to be called Armistice Day in the U.S. and now it is Veterans Day. The emphasis has shifted from those who died to all those who served.

This is a wonderful tribute-- lovely composition. Very touching that you have someone special to you there. A fav for me :)

I guess I should have said it looks cold outside.When I read it back, it didn't sound right. I'm am not the best with words. The picture doesn't look cold. The picture looks like a wonderful tribute.
