And finally some different shots from London.

Lunchtime in the city

Some wildlife in St. James's Park.

More than a few umbrellas

Disrespecting royalty, in front of St. Paul's Cathedral

I've got shots of the changing of the guards, Big Ben, the London Eye, etc. But everyone has seen those before.

I was wandering through the back streets and came across:

Apparently it's outside Channel 4. :shock: It was certainly a surprise!
I'm guessing it's a temporary art installation, but it was very impressive.

Great images, each with its own message.
The glory and vanity of rulers now serving
as a toilet for pigeons. The grace and
simple needs of a squarrel in a park. A reminder
that you are slowing down and need to catch up
with your pints. The ever presence of the English
weather. All good captures!

Thank you. You have given these more thought than I believe I did when taking them. :)

I think you might appreciate this one as well.

Indeed! It is quite a humorous photograph. “Go forth and construct” and
quite clever to include the offending distraction as part of the picture.
