Afternoon in Trafalgar Square

 

Last week, I spent the afternoon at the National Gallery and snapped some photos around Trafalgar Square.


Casa Batllo

Last December, I visited Barcelona where I was inspired by one of my favorite artists, Antoni Gaudi.  I went to Casa Batllo, an apartment building that Gaudi restored in the style of Art Nouveau.  I took over 100 photos in about 2.5 hours.


Canary Wharf

I went to Canary Wharf, the business and financial district in London, for a job interview last week.  I didn't get the job, but I got some great photos.


Barcelona and A. Gaudi

I recently went to Barcelona for a few days and visited some of Gaudi's architectural jewels.  I took a TON of photos.  There are SO many to go through, edit, and and tweak.  It will take me a while, but you can enjoy these in the meantime. More to come later.


The Big Freeze

Over the past couple of days, it's been snowing in the UK.  Schools have been canceled.  Airports have closed. Commuters have been instructed to stay home.  Back in Idaho, a couple of inches of snow and temperatures in the 20's (that's Fahrenheit) wouldn't slow anyone down.  Actually, it's the norm in the Rocky Mountains, but here in Britain, the snow and ice can be crippling.  The country is simply not prepared for this kind of weather.  Because it only snows a couple times a year, they haven't invested in snow removal supplies, equipment, resources.  I braved the temperatures and slick pavement and ventured out into Richmond to snap a few freezing photos.
