We hatched a cunning plan for covering yesterday's Remembrance Day parade. She would face north and I would face south.
With the morning's very strong sun directly in my eyes - where are the grey clouds when they are needed? - I was beset with monstrous flare; no shoe-in for me in next year's calendar, then. But I hope this sequence will appeal.
V1: RSM at work.
V2: Solo march.
V3: Return to position.
V4: Captive audience.
V5: The ones who got away.
Special thanks to Albert (fentiger) for his valued User Award on yesterday's upload.

The open mouth of the RSM is brilliant Bill, it brings memories of the noise and military orders that echo across my memory of covering so many parades and memorials, the voice is so loud in the silence of the crowd before during and just after the Remembrance Day parades.
I think your image has it's place in the Calendar.

The rim lighting adds to the atmosphere beautifully. Nice to see Moira featuring in most of the shots too.
Very clever, Bill. Some excellent crops giving strong juxtapositions between the 'players'. No distraction of colour, and the rim lighting isolates the people well. Hard pushed to choose a favourite they are all so good.

A cracking set, Bill, love the strong backlighting, it really makes these work so well

All superb shots Bill - my kind of light - well handled exposures!
Anne
It sure does Bill great captures and I am pleased you presented them in B/w some how it goes best of all maybe it's a reminder of the times long ago.

An excellent set of images documenting the occasion, I've spotted MrsWoolybill amongst the members of the crowd
Brilliant Bill, and all the better for being Mono.

Cracking set of into the sun images Bill.
The use of mono and the light has given them a special look.
