Nelson’s Column in Trafalgar Square
In 2012 I went for a photowalk around London before a trip to Iceland. Trafalgar Square was on the way!
Windswept in Reykjavik
One of the many buildings in Reykjavik, Iceland that are battered by the harsh weather there. You wouldn’t know it by looking at the sky here but it was quite cold when I took the photo. I think it was at the end of a short photowalk around the city centre when our fingers were…
