London is a very beautiful city, full of visual surprises.
I was cycling home from work, along the path beside the Gran Union Canal, when I saw this amazingly colourful scene.

I took this photo by leaning out of the window of the Royal College of Music with my pocket camera.

On the first Sunday of every month there is something called “Feast”, which happens in West Norwood, near to where I live. There are food stalls and booze and wonderful coffee for sale and things for kids to do and crafts stalls and some live witch-burning.
This morning it rained heavily on “Feast”, like it has done every day this summer.

A view across the Thames from Greenwich, London.

That’s the unfinished “Shard” building in the centre of the photo.
Months later now, they’ve finished it. I’m a bit disappointed they didn’t go all the way up to a sharp point. They left it somewhat ragged-looking.

The Tamesis

A view across the Thames to the big green boat, The "Tamesis". It's a Dutch barge built in the 1930s, now serving as a restaurant.

This huge building in Chelsea used to provide power for the London Underground system but now its days are numbered and it will soon be demolished.
