nightmare
a frightening or unpleasant dream.

We often complain or are
frightened by a nightmare.
But many of our defence personnel
along with many civilians
have lived the nightmare
from which there was
no awakening.

surreal
a situation or experience that is surreal
is very strange and difficult to understand,
like something from a dream
I am choosing my visit to the
Western Front Battle Fields in 2017,
for this post.
Seeing all the cemeteries we visited
and the names of the missing in action was
a reality check, if not surreal.
I created this photo for a
‘ghost’ challenge some time ago.
Every time I look at my Western Front photos,
it brings back memories of those now
tranquil French and Belgium fields,
where death once ruled and they were
covered with bloody bodies.

A dog’s life.
Playing…
Eating…
…and eating again.
After expending all that energy,
it’s time for a sleep,
before starting all over again.

ANZAC Spirit
(Australian & New Zealand Army Corps)
During my 2017 visit
to the World War I
Western Front Battlefields,
…I often saw this, but…
felt that someone was watching
over us as we toured.

SUNDAY STILLS PHOTO: Spirit

Not the first time I have posted this photo…
however, even though I have created the ‘extras’, in this image,
I’m sure there are spirits of the fallen, lost and missing
standing guard over these cemeteries.
