Many a tear has to fall

Editing photos from the weekend I particularly like the effect the sun created on the giant tear-drop in Bury St Edmunds Garden of Reflection in the Abbey Gardens. The red lights were not visible to the eye but were captured on the photo! 
The Garden of Reflection in the Abbey Gardens opened in January 2015. The centre piece is a one and a half metre tall teardrop and the garden is designed to commemorate the murder of 57 Jews in Bury St Edmunds on Palm Sunday, 19 March 1190 and all victims of genocide since.
The teardrop is a natural and universal symbol of pity and persecution, of human suffering and sorrow. It is made from polished stainless steel; its mirrored surface reflects back to us the role we all must play in opposing humanity's inhumanity. The Peace Garden also includes 57 cobble stones - one for each of the victims of the 1190 massacre. There are two stone benches for sitting and enjoying quiet reflection.
The extra photo shows the whole teardrop.

My sister and I enjoyed our visit there on Sunday.
