A London photo every day. Some pictures will be there for their own sake, some because they are places you may like to see, all because they are part of what makes London what it is. Requests welcome!

Top marks for post naming! Statue kind of creeps me out though.
I've heard a few comments on this statue, and not one has been positive. The most cutting was that it was dreary and uninspiring. I see why. Is there any worse criticism of art than calling it dull?
Classic, echoing the grand personages usually 'plinthed'
while playfully post-modern and
celebratory of the average person/child.
Says quite a lot- easy to see
why it appealed to the choosers.
