Lanterns at Dusk

Hiroshima and Nagasaki Memorial Day - candle lanterns lit and waiting to float off down the River Dee.

200 peace lanterns were released on the waters to commemorate the 200,000 men, women and children who died in these two bomb drops. The first use of nuclear weapons in anger was 68 years ago today.
