This should provide some interesting photographic opportunites to capture, especially at the bigger services. It would also be a great opportunity, if we can put aside our personal concerns like parking tickets and getting caught for 6kmh over, to think of all the families who have lost a father, mother, child due to their public service.

Amazing really.
