Hoping to do loads of photographic work in the coming months.

A Big THANKYOU for all the comments and page views ive recieved in the last few months!

LEAST WE FORGET!

And so that is why, across the world, there are many Re-enactments of the World Wars. Of course for the children it may be just another family day out to see cool guns and tanks and planes, But for our older generations, these events are a stark reminder of the world that their young years were spent in. And for us adults, these re-enactments are our tool to help us remember exactly what happened to shape the world we live in now.

And so a recent Re-enactment in leicestershire, to commemorate Victory day, has become my recent focus of attention. Over the next couple of days, I will be submitting several deviations from this event.

Firstly a big THANK-YOU to all the people involved in the event. I talked with many of the re-enactment troops at the event and often asking the big question, "why do this", the answers were particularly humbling. The effort put in to maintain and restore the vehicles and artifacts, or even the detailing in the uniforms and equipment done out of pride and a sense of heritage, not "Wow look, I own a tank!"

I hope you enjoy these photographs, I also hope they may stir a thought for those men and women & children that endured the wars of the 20th century - whichever country they fought for!
