THE clock tower of Bradford City Hall has been illuminated with a projection featuring servicemen from the length and breadth of the Commonwealth who fought in the First World War.
The display, entitled Poppies, will be projected from dusk until 10pm today and tomorrow, Remembrance Sunday.
This poignant piece of art will commemorate and honour those who sacrificed themselves to secure and protect our freedom as well as ancillaries who volunteered to serve - and even some of the animals which worked alongside the fighting forces.
Framed by falling poppies, the images include some of the soldiers of the 16th and 18th battalions of the West Yorkshire Regiment, the Bradford Pals.
The projection, funded by Bradford Council, was created by Bradford artist Steve Manthorp working with Lumen and with the kind support of CrucialFX.
