EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "5000 Poppies" a seagull gracefully soars above a breathtaking sea of vibrant red poppies that blanket Federation Square in Melbourne. This awe-inspiring image is part of the 5000 Poppies project, a heartfelt tribute to commemorate the centenary of Anzac. As the sun rises over this iconic Australian landmark, it illuminates the beauty and significance of this poignant display. The poppies symbolize remembrance and honor for those who have served in wars, particularly during World War I. They serve as a powerful reminder of sacrifice and bravery. Federation Square serves as an ideal backdrop for this installation, representing unity and national pride. The seagull's presence adds an ethereal touch to the scene, almost as if it is paying its respects to fallen heroes from Australia and New Zealand. This photograph captures not only the visual spectacle but also evokes emotions tied to war memorials, tradition, and national identity. It reminds us of ANZAC Day ceremonies held across Australia on April 25th each year when Australians pay homage to those who fought at Gallipoli during World War I. Tracey Nearmy's skillful composition beautifully encapsulates both the solemnity and resilience associated with war memorials while highlighting Australia's unique landscape. This print will undoubtedly be cherished by history enthusiasts or anyone seeking inspiration from our nation's rich heritage.
