A few pictures of a day in the City

Duke of Wellington
Duke of Wellington, the cone is a permanent feature, if they remove it, it gets replaced.

I call this one Doctor Who.

I like the selection BIll, the Duke's hat is flattering... too funny. And Dr. Who just cracked me up. Very nice set Bill, thanks for sharing them.

Great shots of a great city, love the traffic cone hat, The reflection of the old building in the new modern building is stunning.

I liked the last shot the best. The building reflecting the one opposite to it looks very flat, like a plane which consists of mirrors !

They are copper coloured, I don`t know if it is glass or metal.

The traffic cone is too funny! It's strange how some things get started and then they become tradition. A cone will probably still be there a hundred years from now. Love the Dr Who police booth. The last one is my favorite, not just because it is a reflection, but juxtaposes the old onto the new. Well done!
