BRIAN DAVID STEVENS : Those Who Survive



" THEY THAT ARE LEFT... "
  Remembrance Portraits : by Brian David Stevens











All pictures taken on Armistice Day 2002 - 2012 in the United Kingdom a ten year project by Brian David Stevens

I saw this quote in The NYT today " The past is never dead. It's not even past." William Faulkner. These words reflect so well how memory keeps old friends, family and comrades alive.

I had to correct , Sorry about getting your name wrong again Brian,for me your images are hard to forget. Someone wrote that there is something in the eyes, stories are being told.

" They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them..."

from Laurence Binyon's 'The Fallen' (first published in The Times, 21st September 1914)
