their name liveth forever more

We have spent the day exploring the Commonweath War Graves on the Somme. James' great-uncle lost his life to a large artillery shell in 1916, and although his body was never found, he is commemorated at Theipval. We made our pilgrimage today and I thought these poppies were appropriate as a tribute to great-uncle Henry and to all those who have lost their lives in senseless wars.
