TRAFALGAR - The Mourning After the Day Before - 22nd October 2007

I didn't make it to the actual Trafalgar Day commemoration ceremony on the 21st but I did manage to get to the city centre on the following day to photograph the statue and wreaths.
Wreaths from left to right are from the Scouting Asociation, the Birmingham St George's Day Asociation, the Royal Society of St George and the Nelson Society.
More wreaths. From left to right... from Captain David Elford RN, the Birmingham Civic Society and from the Royal Navy.
