In the Cross Hairsby *EarthHart

Photography / Photojournalism / Public Gatherings & Events

Shot at the unveiling of a monument to "The Last Fighting Tommy" Harry Patch. A few hundred people turned up, along with a Army Cadet Force band, the Police and the Fire Brigade, of which Harry was a member after the First World War.
It's on the lawn of Wells Museum, and various dignitaries of Wells & Somerset turned up to have their photos taken.

The Press & TV were there, along with this army photographer, a great guy as it turned out. More on that later

I remember seeing a program about Harry a couple of years ago on The history Channel, he seemed to be a real gentleman despite the horrors he went through

*EarthHart May 8, 2012

He was a very amiable chap, had a great smile & laugh

~NIKON-AJ May 7, 2012 Photographer

You can tell he is using a Nikon, did he get any shots of You?

*EarthHart May 8, 2012

Yes

That I'll find out I hope, as I've sent him the shots I got of him

Many thanks for the favour, Alan

~NIKON-AJ May 8, 2012 Photographer

He was doing his job, and didn't shoot me as such. This is his site [link] Well worth a look

~NIKON-AJ May 10, 2012 Photographer
