EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the intricate beauty of the Fovant Badges, a remarkable hill figure located in Fovant Down, Wiltshire. Created by Damian Grady in 2016, this print showcases the Chalk Military Badges of the Post Office Rifles and the Devonshire Regiment, as well as the Centenary Poppy Badge under construction. The Fovant Badges hold great historical significance as they were created during World War I to honor and commemorate various military units. These badges served as a symbol of pride and unity for soldiers stationed nearby. Today, they stand as a poignant reminder of sacrifice and bravery. The meticulous attention to detail captured in this image is truly awe-inspiring. From above, one can appreciate the precision with which these badges were crafted into the chalk landscape. The vibrant colors used to construct each badge add depth and dimension to an otherwise monochromatic canvas. Damian Grady's expert photography skills bring out every nuance of these iconic symbols against their natural backdrop. The composition allows viewers to fully immerse themselves in this historic site from a unique perspective. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of our shared history but also of those who have fought valiantly for our freedom. It serves as a testament to human resilience and honors those who have made tremendous sacrifices on behalf of their country.
