The Poppies Wave by night.

I featured the Poppies Wave installation at the Naval War memorial on Plymouth Hoe,

in bright summer sunlight on my post of 26th August.

Here they are on a crisp autumn night.

The Poppies Wave

 

Some of the poppies which attracted huge crowds to the Tower of London in 2014, have come to Plymouth.

 

The ceramic poppies marking British and colonial casualties of World War One have been sculpted into a wave at the Naval Memorial on the Hoe.

The Poppies will be in the city 

till 19th November

The city is the only one in the UK to host the display on a war memorial
