We are on a street in Warsaw on what turned out to be a cold day on November 11 which in Poland is Independence Day.
Up there at the top of the picture is that pink smoke, and like all good pictures there is a story.
And the story I discover later is that the Far Right were on the march. Over the years they have stolen the day and use it to highlight their nationalist views.*
Not good.
