'Blood Swept Lands and Sea of Red'


Visited the exceptional art installation, 'Blood Swept Lands and Sea of Red' at the Tower of London.

Marking 100 years since the start of the First World War, this installation was created by ceramic artist Paul Cummins.  888,246 ceramic poppies will progressively fill the Tower's moat.  Each poppy represents a British military fatality during the war.





Volunteers still hard at work 'planting' the poppies.
