Every few months my camera needs to see London and I am happy to take it. My usual route starts at Marble Arch where I part with the Oxford Tube. Tea at a Mayfair cafe is closely followed by Selfridges, South Molton Street, Bond Street, Fenwicks, Liberty, Carnaby Street, Beyond Retro and numerous boutiques around Soho, as I drift towards Covent Garden via Earlham Street. If there is time I head out towards Knightsbridge or Chelsea and when the sun is out Brick Lane or Portobello Road.
I like to look at expensive handbags, beautiful shop windows, unusual doorways, people, tiles in the underground, cute cafes, railings, balconies, coloured buildings, lines of trees, topiary, overpriced antiques, vintage clothing, cupcakes, pretty packaging, new shops and shops I have known since I was a child. It is always an adventure behind a camera lens.
Such beautiful photographs, makes me miss London so much! x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, as usual. Makes me chomp at the bit for our move all the more!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to copy that chair idea come the summer, so thanks for the inspiration! What's the story behind the love heart padlocks, where is that? x
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing isn't it!
DeleteThe padlocks are in Covent Garden and they are for the British Heart Foundation.
Charming as always! Thank you for sharing London!
ReplyDeleteI love hearing about visitors trips to London - they always seem to do walking around so much better than I!!
