London is a very photogenic city, you can find something to photograph on every corner.
I walked around the city after work. Sunset time in the UK is now around 9:30 PM, so I had plenty of time to have dinner and explore the city during blue hour.
Enjoy the tour!
What a wonderful travelog! You nailed blue hour, especially with the first image. I recognize a few landmarks, but do tell about the statue of someone who seems to have one foot on a chimney (illusion) and whose face is covered by a flag. #10?

Thank you GoodEgg, I really enjoyed walking and capturing such beautiful buildings and squares. The sculpture you are referring to it was mysteriously installed in Waterloo Place in St James's, central London, an area surrounded by historical military and imperial monuments.It s a satirical piece by the street artist Banksy, depicting a suited man marching off a plinth with a large flag completely obscuring his face. The piece is widely interpreted as a critique of blind patriotism and imperialism.

Stunning photography here my friend!
The b&w were jaw dropping and I find these equally enticing to view!
What f.l. was the lens?
Everything sharp and crisp! And what's more is that you have them in B&W to compare!
I am finding the b&w just super!
Thanks for the trip!
