One Last Hurrah - a photo on Flickriver

            The Diamond Jubilee for Queen Elizabeth II took place in 2012. As part of the celebrations a grand parade of ships came down the River Thames including the Royal Barge, Gloriana, rowed by her crew. I remember it well as it poured with rain and the weather was awful. But the Queen and Prince Philip took it all in. To recreate this event after the passing of the Queen a similar night time event took place on 24th September with ships and boats of all sizes lit up for the journey down the Thames.. The Eye was lit in the Queen Purple. I managed to get some shots from Waterloo Bridge but the procession was quite spaced out and some boats better lit than others. As soon as the Royal Barge had passed many of the crowds dispersed. One last hurrah for the Queen.
