‘Lest we forget’ (bow of silence)
Awesome capture, taken by Danny on Sunday of Tommy, the statue by Ray Lonsdale, near the war memorial in Seaham.
Tommy was only meant to be temporarily displayed, but in 2014, residents of Seaham put together the £102,000 to buy the statue, where it now remains permanently.
I see so many photos of ‘Tommy’ online, but I have to say this is the best take I have seen on it. The girl bowing her head seems to be mirroring the pose of Tommy. Therefore I have renamed it ‘bow of silence’ 😀
The photo was selected for publication in the local Northern echo today, cos it’s reet canny! 😂
