Armistice Day dawns over the Tower of London poppies on 11 / 11 2014 - the final day of the full Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red installation with the last poppy placed in the moat just before the two minute silence at 11am that day. A light crimson dawn reflecting the poppies in the moat with volunteers starting the huge task of removing them the next day.

Dawn Flight: 50 hot air balloons flew over the City of London at sunrise on Sunday June 7 2015. The Lord Mayor’s Appeal Balloon Regatta launched from Shoreditch north of the Thames and flew south across the City to raise awareness and funds for the appeal. Each balloon stood almost one hundred feet tall and sailed across the City in perfect weather. 2015 also sees the 50th anniversary of the British Balloon and Airship Club. The last mass ascent balloon flight over London was over 20 years ago.
