Gold Beach, Arromanches - Sept 2010

Gold Beach, Arromanches - Sept 2010
The beach at Arromanches, Normandy, France, where the invasion of Normandy by 'Allied Forces' began in June 1944. Code named Gold Beach it saw the disembarkment of thousands of fighting men and many tons of war equipment.
Overlaid as a semi-transparent layer is a picture of the War Cemetery at Bayeux, where a lot of the men from all nationalities who were killed on the 'Normandy Beaches' are buried.

Arlequin Photographie, Phil Sutters, Annaig56 have particularly liked this photo

It is good, as one walks on peaceful golden sands, to remember those who died or were injured on those self same sands, liberating Europe. You have achieved a moving layering of the then and the now.
