The place where I live...

Something a little more gentle today after yesterday's angst.

You probably all know by now I live in London and this is one of my favourite images of the city I love.

To me London is history & modernity, tradition & change, the sublime & the ridiculous, beautiful & ugly, exciting & frustrating, happiness & tragedy - all of these things - and always with the Thames coursing through its heart. Unceasing and energising.

I feel very privileged to live where I do.
