London's Subway Station Sorry to be pedantic but that isn't a subway station, it's a normal, above ground railway station. Our subway stations (or tube stations as we call them) are tiny, cramped, dirty, white-tiled little sewers. I think Byron wins that round.

I think Byron wins that round. *****for daned***** you are correct and please don't be sorry , I did notice later that is was infact the railway station and not the subway or tube station. Everyday we used a different means of transportion ranging from tube stations, bus, taxi and train. Nevertheless, I saw the railway structure and source of lighting to be beautiful. Not to mention that spectacular force of visual perspective view.
Milton kept looking at me... and "thinking" (I could tell) darn American tourists.

Milton lives in Notting Hill. We walked quite a bit... it was wonderful to feel more intimate with the area. He pointed out street names, although I don't think I could be accurate to state exactly where the photo of the fruit stand was taken. But I will say this... we were walking toward Holland Park or in that area if that gives you a general idea. Milton could tell you exactly. Your/all comments are too kind. Really... all, one of the first things Byron asked me... some two years ago was...
"Do you like photography?" I surely just aim and shoot and for the most part, sometimes I get lucky and even amaze myself, sometimes...
I  Digital. No way... can I capture such pictures on a camera, I will leave that to the pros... like TMBGITW, Byron and Peter (how many remember his work?)... I will glady step aside and  .
One day Byron and I took our camera out for a run... and comparing the photo's taken.  Fools, I know.
Now I use Picture It (nothing fancy) and manipulate a bit. Like the one of Big Ben... it was a severely overcast day, actually raining. I simply turned a gray day into a true black and white scale, why not.  Byron has some tricks up his sleeve... I just know it, I can feel it. | |

Me former girl's peeps them be. Interesting and deep culture they have. Used to love chatting to her about her roots and country folk. 
Cheerz pal! "..My work is personal, I'm a working person, I put in work, I work with purpose.." | |

Picture #5, is it??...My response..
These two followed me for about 5 minutes as I walked up to Passage Peak on Hamilton Island...and when they finally landed on a branch in front of me, I quickly took their photo... And as for this... "I surely just aim and shoot and for the most part, sometimes I get lucky and even amaze myself, sometimes"... I told you before, false modesty does not look good on you..lol Glad you answered "yes" to my question 2 years ago. | |
