Time (finally 24 years) to repair the poor sod

I love the work of Ray Lonsdale but "Tommy" is probably my favourite so I will never get bored of photographing him #Poppy #lestweforget #remembranceday #remembrance #seaham #codurham #sculpture #art #artwork #sculpture #Tommy #Coast #Seaham #CountyDurham #Northeast #CapturingBritain #Colourpop

I went to see how the good folk of Seaham 'dressed' Tommy this year.
This is what he's like and what I came home with.

I dropped my granddaughter to the train station at Durham this morning, thought I'd grab a few pics on the way home, so off I headed off to observatory hill, Durham. I love the subtle changes in the 15mins between pictures 🌅

Another day, another east park sunrise 🌅
I do like the sunrise's from here, if I was nearer the coast they'd be the northsea and lighthouses, but I'm not, so it's here for trees, the church and a sun star 🌳⛪️🌤⭐️
