2021 is the 50th year of Bangladesh and as such the Bangladeshi community in UK are celebrating the 50th anniversary through various projects. The celebrations and festivities are subdued because of the Covid 19 pandemic and the lockdown restrictions; but nevertheless various events have taken place. 25 years ago on 14th April 1996, as a younger man I was in Trafalgar Square, London, taking photos of the event that took place, under the Nelson’s column and the Gallery. There I was impressionable and a photography enthusiast attending and taking photos. This event was before digital photography, using 35mm film negatives. While I wasn’t in the politics but as a photojournalist, it was a setting to capture memorable shots. We know that so much has changed and also so many people in the photos are no longer with us. Though they are not my relations I look at the photos memorably; as we once shared the same space in our lives; where we crossed paths. So, as they will live in my memories, I want to share them with those who, it will mean something to them.
