Old Soldier

Two Remembrance Day poppies have been placed in the stump of a fallen tree at the corner of West Peninsula and Peninsula Road.  They have been there since November.  I photographed them today and treated the photo in different ways.

The first expresses a soft wistful feeling, the second has a more gritty, rough feel.

I suppose each interpretation is appropriate depending on one’s experience.

The poppies remind me how lucky we are.
