    It really brings home to you what the City of London is all about when you see a view like this…so close you feel like you can touch it….not far from my part of the ‘old smoke’.

  • using the zoom lens does help,tho peter
    london and modernism of building design
    from a distance i don`t mind ,but up close
    i find most glass structures souless
    sounds paradoxical oh well that sort of somes me up

    I agree, most glass structures are souless.
    From 70 miles and 25 years away, London has real beauty and pulls at a deeper sense of home..:)

  • nostalgia,has its place,and london does have its beauty for sure

    seems modern for an old town, Loonton. apologize, rustic jealousy.

  • from a disdtance the tall buildings stand out,urban sadness and anxiety
    drastic change is not always for the better,whatever the politians tell

    I love London so much
    and
    that way
    looks like Metropolis!

  • thanks magali the london skyline is changing dramatically
    and fritz laing would have probably noticed the paradox

    I often wonder what those great filmmakers would have done nowdays………
    I am a mad mad fan of this film :)

  • it was certainly a great film,possiblly highlighing the danger`s of mass production and modernity

    We had an exhibition in Paris about the film past month, watching all the drawings, creativity of people at that time…….. pure, absolute happiness…… brings the idea, that anything is possible :)

  • sounds like a wonderful exhibition.i hope it comes to london
    in the realm of the imagination most things are possible
