It is much more powerful an image as there must be twice as many poppies as there were when we first visited.
They now run in a thick field all around the tower. They are still not finished and there are still more to be planted.

Poppies at the tower 2
I had the chance to revisit the Tower of London to have a look at the poppies that are being arranged to remember the start of WW1. I had visited nearly a month ago just before William and Kate had attended the ceremony. At the time it was stunning how many poppies had been planted.
