Number 6 of these has to remain my favourite - fantastic shadow, lighting and exposure and the added bonus of that impressively placed figure.

Projects are always good. Now you have so many images, not just this project, why not gather them together in a Blurb book? I could imagine that people would buy that and enjoy it very much.

I love the way that the character in the foreground of Number 1 seems to be hiding from somebody on the other side.

Good set, Pauly, though I don't think my laptop screen is letting me see them at their best.

A wonderful set indeed, my favourite being number 5 (with the dome in the background) for the way the statue appears to be waving at the camera.

He'd obviously heard about Pauly's project. Probably a Pentax man himself.

Thanks, John. This Blurb book you speak of sounds interesting and worth doing, as you say. I did a quick search for this product, as I was unaware of it and it looks like a great product, seriously.

Thanks for the 'head's up' on it, John.

It's good to hear what interests other's in looking at a photograph like this, thanks George. For me, it was the foreground statue looking in the same direction as Old Father Thames was pointing.

I should've posted 'em up a little larger, sorry George.

Thanks, Hefty. I'm happy you guys like the set as a whole.

1 & 6 are my picks, but as a series, it's all progressing well Pauly.

Yeah, this is a fantastic series. It's great to see all of them together like this as it really helps to bring the project together nicely.

Here are a few more images for this project.
I'll be publishing these images as a Blurb Book (12"x12" Hardback), so that these images can all be viewed alongside each other, and in the same context. As yet though this project is still ongoing.

Thanks to John Riley for enlightening me about this service.

BTW, the old London Wall behind Emporer Trajan is all that is left of the old Roman wall that surrounded London, built under Trajan himself.
