Not entirely landscape but something I wanted to share.

We had the great honour to shoot a Remembrance Day service onbaord the Havengore (the boat that carried Churchill's coffin at the State funeral in 1965). It was a moving and beautiful event.

The most amazing part was when they raised Tower Bridge out of respect for the occasion and we slowly moved through while the piper played on the deck.

Thanks for looking. Ute

Yes, I think they are. There were "watermen and lightermen" onboard.
You're right about the 'once in a life time' - it really was an awesome moment for us.

That must have been quite an experience. Thanks for sharing. Who was 'we' by the way? Who did they invite, a photoclub or you specifically?

What a terrific opportunity. Must have been an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing.

By the way, where is that blue sky now? What a dreary day. Winds supposed to blow around 60 mph tomorrow.

Cheers,
