This is taken on the observation gallery at Tower Bridge. The walkway over the bridge has a glass floor and a mirrored ceiling which gives the unusual perspective.

Each year we visit Madeira they have something different going on in the way of street art. On this occasion they had strung umbrellas up over public areas to offer shade. It was also part of a drive to draw attention to recycling plastics and the effect these have on the oceans.

On a cold, wet, and windy day, find something to do indoors! I had a white sheet laid out over the table and just spread these things out. In lightroom I just upped the exposure and whiteness to blank out any background.

Yet another example of why you need to look up and benefits from the luck of the timing.

You do indeed see all sorts of things here so a bored looking Storm Trooper hustling for drinkers at a bar is relatively normal. I had last visited New Orleans in the 1980's, long before hurricane Katrina and that event has left its mark. In truth I found the place scuzzy and not at all the good fun place it had been. It was now just all about drinking, drinking and drinking. The fun and the music seemed to have moved on (Frenchmen Street has a much better vibe). Probably because of the hurricane, this place smells badly of blocked drains and vomit.
