    Sorry, but I couldn’t resist the pun. This was taken in the gorgeous blue tunnels of Embankment Underground Station. We pass through these areas so often, but rarely appreciate their abstract nature. See more from this shoot at my www.London-Prints.com website.

    London 2012 Olympics – One Year to Go #2

    The Royal Park in Greenwich will be the site of the Equestrian Events of the London 2012 Olympics. This was the scene earlier this month for the London Olympic 2012 Equestrian and Modern Pentathlon Test Event, with the National Maritime Museum and Canary Wharf beyond. It at least gives you an idea of how things [...]

    London 2012 Olympics – One Year to Go #1

    We can finally count the time until the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games in days, not years. While the main site is still difficult to access and not so pretty due to ongoing construction, we’re getting an idea of how everything will look once finished. Here’s a detail from the Olympic Stadium. [...]

    I guess these guys in London’s Canary Wharf yesterday hadn’t got the memo! As one of a pair of luxury yachts at the quay, they stood out as the only vessels in sight. But does the Champagne really taste better aboard one of these, rather than out of a plastic mug in a rowing boat? [...]

    One week from the Royal Wedding of Kate and William and London is in party mood. This was the scene on Regent Street yesterday. The sun was out and the crowds were enjoying the decorations.

    Visiting another country is about more than just sightseeing. So much of a country’s culture is about the food. Here is a variation of the much maligned (and much enjoyed!) Full English Breakfast. I’m happy to say, I did manage to eat most of it, washed down with that mug of tea! So should I [...]

    Spring has Sprung in London

    Spring has Sprung in London

    Buckingham Palace, resplendent in Spring flowers. Of course, this will be a dull show in comparison to the decorations for the Royal Wedding of Kate and William, taking place in just five weeks, on the 29th April 2011. If you’d like to purchase a Canvas Print or Poster of this image, please click here for [...]

    Sunset behind Big Ben

    Sunset behind Big Ben

    One of the classic views of London… clear sky at sunset. Even more stunning at the beginning of Spring, after the dark days of Winter.

    Nothing stays the same

    I’m always amazed at how the skyline of The City changes so quickly. St. Paul’s Cathedral, on the left, is probably the oldest building in the photograph. Looking to the right, the first of the tallest buildings is the almost complete Heron Tower. To the top of its spire, it is now the tallest building [...]
