Well I can't give you beautiful vistas of lonely deserts, exotic flora and fauna and dramatic seascapes, but I can give you the things I see when I walk ten minutes from my office... it's so easy to be complacent when you work somewhere like I do, when the most amazing places and unexpected sights are only minutes away - my friends I give you Whitehall and Trafalgar Square

Big Ol' Lion


Fountain of Joy


10+1 Drummers Drumming (+1 is texting on his mobile and has clearly forgotten to wear his dress uniform...)

Well those are neat ... especially since I have not gotten to London in almost 10 years.

Do you have any idea how fascinating these shots are? They aren't things I see everyday, and when I did get to see them for real I was dumbfounded. We did that London bus tour on the double decker, fascinating in itself, and I was in awe. It looked just like in does in the movies.

Thanks for the flashback. I visited Trafalgar Square when i was in the
Navy back in the 70's. As i remember it was a pleasureable visit.
