These pigeons took flight in Trafalgar Square, London, UK, when a lorry went past and honked his horn. They flew everywhere around our heads and then came back to land in the same position. The lorry driver must have laughed at the startled tourists and pigeons being caught unaware. This was taken on film and scanned to digital. I have added a layer of texture too.

At the bottom of Nelsons Column in Trafalgar Square, four of these magnificent bronze lions sit guarding their masters memorial. Designed by Sir Edwin Landseer (the man who painted ‘Monarch of the Glen’) in 1840 they have always been one of my favorite British landmarks.

I was mooching around London and came across the end of a promotion at Trafalgar Square. I asked one of the models if she would mind posing for a few shots and she generously obliged, bringing some colour to a drab day.

This photograph was taken in Perth, Western Australia. It is a shot taken at the base of The Swan Bells- an iconic structure for Perth and all of Western Australia. (See the Swan Bells history below excerpted from http://www.swanbells.com.au) This was one angle of the building where I really felt I was standing beneath a giant swan looking up towards its breast, its wings on either side & it’s beak rising up towards the air. Swan Bells History: / “The Bell Tower’s fascinating historic content, its distinctive design – resulting from a major architectural competition and it’s prize location combine to produce a distinctively different attraction. It has become an icon for Perth and Western Australia. The Bell Tower acts as a custodian of tradition for the over six million Australians (2001 census) who regard their ancestory as English and for all Western Australians as we carry a proud love of our ANZAC, worker roots. This historic ring of bells was gifted to the people of Western Australia as part of the national Bicentennial celebrations. The Bell Tower include the twelve bells of St Martin-in-the-Fields which are recorded as being in existence from before the 14th century and recast in the 16th century by Queen Elizabeth I. / The bells were again recast between 1725 and 1770 by three generations of the Rudhall family of bell founders from Gloucester in England, under the order of the Prince of Wales who was later crowned as King George II. They are one of the few sets of royal bells and are the only ones known to have left England. From one of London’s most famous churches, in Trafalgar Square, the St Martin-in-the-Fields bells have rung out to celebrate many historic events.
