Nice light on his face there Pauly. I like the contrast with the council estate windows too.

Thanks, guys. I was fortunate with that fleeting beam of light on his face, 'cos that was just what it was - fleeting.
I forgot to mention, the Brighton Pavillion is another construct of his.

Thanks, David.
I liked the fact that this angle included different architectural elements in the scene, ie the columns, architrave, glass and buttresses, too.

This has grown on me since I first saw it, probably because in retrospect I agree with the comments already made here.

That's London, Paul. The old unchanging face of history with the brash new elbowing in from the side and above. Nice capture.
Best wishes,
