photohunt

I saw this very interesting photograph in the museum of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards which is inside Edinburgh Castle. I couldn’t resist trying to get a photo of it and you can probably see that I have managed to get my own reflection in the glass too.

All I can say about the photo is rather him than me!!!

Calm in the Face of Danger

    Gorgeous. A Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, in a desert making music in front of a tank. Heroic!

    Ah, it’s so good to know that it is possible to write a comment without filtres.

    What was the Challenger tank doing approaching at speed anyway?

  4. At the battle of El Alamein the pipers walked in line and behind them the soldiers who were followed by the tanks. Apparently the Germans were so terrified of the wailing noise from the bagpipes that many ran away, so playing a bagpipe in front of a tank is nothing new but an excellent way to stop that horrible din!

  5. I really love the effect you’ve produced, whether or not it was intended!

    I like the picture. It’s something special – and made all the more unique by the reflection :-)

    I think that reflection in the glass makes it seem both more and less fearful – because simultaneously emphasises (a) the fact that it’s war + (b) the opposing fact that it’s merely a model. Interesting one, Cherie.
