another remarkable tribute, hopefully you can see the pictures, video.

[emmie]

you have to scroll down to the video, astonishing tribute by this one man.

[naomi24]

I saw that, emmie. I don't like it at all. Horrible.

[emmie]

really, sorry to hear that, he spent almost 5 years doing it.

[naomi24]

I know - and it's an achievement - but I don't like it. Chilling.

no ones mentioned all the smoke and pollution from 5 thousand paraffin burning fires for a week

[emmie]

i don't think that was taken into consideration, or they thought of it, but it;s only a week, shame you have such a downer on it, its a stunning tribute to millions lost.

The silhouettes that will be drawn on beaches all around the UK are quite something too. One being drawn in the sand up here in Colwyn Bay.

I think the shrouded figures are a very poignant tribute.

[emmie]

Ken so do I.

[Togo]

Ta Emmie. I saw a group of people down on the sands yesterday afternoon and wondered what they were doing. I suppose the drawing to be done on Sunday will have to be started at first light as it is high tide around 1pm. Hope no one protests about polluting the beach.

[emmie]

can't see them doing that, polluting the beach, its a wonderful tribute.

[Mamyalynne]

All are moving ways to remember, thank you.

[Lie-in King]

All moving, poignant tributes, thanks for the links.
