A picture shows ceramic poppies from the "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red" installation by ceramic artist Paul Cummins and theatre stage designer Tom Piper, marking the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War, in the moat area of the Tower of London in London on November 10, 2014. Designed as a tribute to Britain's World War I dead, a blood-red trench of ceramic poppies around the Tower of London has become a national phenomenon as Britons flock to remember the fallen in generations of war. When the final poppy is planted on November 11, Armistice Day, the installation will consist of over 800,000 ceramic poppies, each one symbolising a British and Commonwealth military fatalities in WW1.
