Celebration

Marvelous scenes in the Mall yesterday, as 250000 people watched a celebration and commemoration of the end of WWII, 60 years ago. There’s a few photos around on Flickr, try here for MOD stuff.

The flypast by the period planes was something you don’t see everyday; the last plane, a Lancaster, had it’s bomb hold filled with one million red poppies, which were release to float down over the watching crowds.
