EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by TRACEY NEARMY, we witness the powerful tribute of "5000 Poppies" at Federation Square in Melbourne. As the sun rises over this iconic location, a sea of vibrant red poppies blankets the square, creating an awe-inspiring sight that pays homage to the centenary of Anzac. The 5000 Poppies project stands as a remarkable commemoration of Australia and New Zealand's brave soldiers who fought valiantly in wars throughout history. This installation serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifices and heroism. Federation Square becomes a sacred ground where tradition meets innovation, combining art with remembrance. Each delicate poppy represents an individual life lost or forever changed by war. The sheer magnitude of these flowers evokes both sorrow and gratitude for those who served our country. Anzac Day holds great significance for Australians, particularly due to its connection with Gallipoli and Prince Harry's visit to pay respects at the Roll of Honour on Gold Coast Beach in Sydney. It is during moments like these that we come together as one nation to honor our fallen heroes and reflect on their immeasurable contributions. TRACEY NEARMY captures this profound moment with exceptional skill, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the beauty and solemnity that surrounds this memorial display. Through her lens, she invites us all to remember those who have served while reminding us never to forget their sacrifice for our freedom.
