The ceremony, named Beyond The Deepening Shadow, will be repeated each night at The Tower of London, until the final showing on Remembrance Sunday. A ceremonial Beefeater guard began the lighting ceremony this evening by bringing a flame down from the tower into the moat, which had been submerged in smoke (inset left). Dozens of representatives from the armed forces and volunteers then used the flame to ignite thousands of other torches staked into or placed on the ground underneath the tower, bathing the barren moat in light (main picture). Midshipman Balraj Dhanda of the Royal Navy, a volunteer who helped light the flames, described the spectacle as 'really, really powerful'. 'I think it creates the right atmosphere for people to have their own personal reflections and gives people time with their own thoughts,' he added. Members of the public can watch the spectacle for free.
