Poppy and fallen leaves mosaic

Remembrance Day, 100th Armistice Day, Veterans Day, remembering all those who died in the Great War and the wars after that ... we definitely should remember it always, but why do we not learn from it ?... I did see the commemorations in Paris on tv with all those world leaders and I did wonder ... tomorrow every nation will be busy with selling and/or buying arms again ... give peace a chance !

The mosaic has been made through the AndreaMosaic maker using 32 different images of fallen leaves made today in the garden to re-create the poppy image I made for my 6 June 2014 Blip, when  the world was commemorating the 70th anniversary of D-Day with plenty of world leaders too.

I did enjoy seeing all the Abstract Thursday entries, thanks so much for your creativity , not just in the images but also in the theme interpretations :-) This coming Thursday the optional theme will be 'tapestry' and the tag will be AT177

The list of last Thursday's specials:
Taffydil      for a very painterly autumnal reflection
gordo         for a very vibrant spring abstract
Stuarteff   for a great interpretation of falling leaves
redilady     for a grungy autumn impression
youoregon1    for the most original alternative take on the theme

Thanks again for all entries and thank you very much for your kind comments and stars for yesterday's rose in the shadow.
