Photographer David Gilliver used a special technique that involves very long exposure times to capture this image. Taken next to the World War I memorial in Guernsey in the Channel Islands, this is his tribute, entitled "Lest We Forget".

Helen Young: "Wharton C of E Primary School in Winsford, Cheshire, marked the anniversary of the WWI armistice. The children were invited to come to school wearing their cubs, scouts, brownies, rainbows and boys brigade uniforms. They were joined by ex-pupils and the school caretaker who has previously served in the Navy for over 20 years."

Susan Pettigrew took this photo of the memorial in Armadale, Western Australia. "Back in 1914 to 1918 Armadale was a small community. It's so sad to think of those young boys leaving to fight so far away from home. You can see the names of the unfortunate ones who didn't make it home. Lest we forget."
