This is a glimpse of the Thames with an arch of Blackfriars Bridge above. That morning, I had woken up early and had set off along the Thames Path, heading East towards Tower Bridge. It was a fine day and the morning sun cast a sympathetic light on the River. It was at this point that I crossed over to the North Bank to continue my journey East. | |||
Lambeth Palace, the official residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury. It is directly across the River Thames from the Houses of Parliament. | |||
Regent Street, heading North from Picadilly Circus. Note the young man striking a pose for the camera. | |||
The Cavalry arrives at Hyde Park in the nick of time! | |||
The morning light was perfect for this shot of St Pauls, seen from the South Bank. | |||
Regent's Canal, walking towards Camden Town. London Zoo is close by, on the South bank of the canal, to our right. | |||
The London Eye... with rearing horses! And that gorgeous morning light again, reminding me of the miniature silhouette portraits of a bygone era. | |||
The Lion of Trafalgar... with the wonderful National Gallery behind it. When I lived in London as a young art student, way back in the 1960s, I used to walk just about every day from Pimlico, across St James Park, to this Gallery for my daily dose of great art. | |||
St Pauls again. | |||
Swans on the Serpentine. | |||
