London, England

Food and wine bar in SoHo district of London, England


London Bar
London, England
  The SoHo district of London, England is a trendy area with upscale eateries and this food and wine bar is no exception.  You can check out their website here.  I didn't actually eat there, but I liked the facade for it's simple, charming and weathered look.  And I like how this illustrates the city life of these people and shows the various conversations taking place.  Being a big fan of Walker Evans' photography, this image reminds me of his photos of facades taken in the 1930's for the Farm Security Administration.

London, England

This photo was done in "The Tube", otherwise know as the Underground. I saw this billboard and just had to laugh at the British humor. The ad was for shaving cream for a woman's underarms. Directly behind the guy is the woman's armpit. The humor all over Europe is a lot less conservative than what we have in the States. That's probably a surprise to no one. I wanted to get a photo of someone staring at the photo so I sat on the bench and waited for about ten minutes and along came this guy. He had no idea I took this photo.
