It is very difficult to come up with a different and original angle in photographing Nelson and his column. But I noticed the similarity in Sir Henry Havelock's pose with Lord Nelson's, and recorded it.




Gen. Havelock & Lord Nelson - Trafalgar Square, London '10 #19

As usual, an excellent image. However, Nelson is leaning a bit to the right, and the General definitely needs a perspective adjustment. Suppose the problem is quite simple really, as you have posted so many fine images over the last 18 months the bar is getting higher all the time

Thanks Dave, your right about a perspective correction, although I don't mind the convergence in this shot.
