For Mums lost  by helenhall

For Mums lost

We walked today along the Thames opposite the Houses of Parliament. A fitting place I think to mark the deaths of all the lives lost to COVID.

The National Covid Memorial Wall has 220 000 hearts along 500m of wall and this really brings home the loss experienced. People are invited to write on any of the hearts to remember their loved one.

I picked this bit to photograph with the dedication to a lost Mum as I thought this fitting for Mothering Sunday tomorrow.

What a story telling image and narrative! Poignant

A poignant image of those who we lost to Covid. I do think it would be improved by straightening the lines and possibly cropping in, making the main point of focus the one identified as 'mum'.

Great idea and very poignant.

I could have been one of those hearts so I truly mourn for them. Lovely idea for a tribute.

@marshwader you are certainly right about the straightening - I think my editing was rather hasty.

Very effective
