Man. I had no idea how behind I was with posting photos!
These photos were all taken at the end of June/beginning of July 2011 when I gleefully flew 4,000 miles to be with my new love in London.
It was a whirlwind week of art, food, history, and romance that ended with me flying back to Nashville with a overflowing heart and a sparkly engagement ring!
There is so much in London. It’s completely overwhelming. My husband has lived here 11 years and is still blown away by how much there is to see and do.
I present to you, my three weeks experiencing it all for the first time…
Tralfagar Square
Charing Cross
Somerset House
Strolling along the Thames
Battersea Power Station and Park
Millenium Bridge and St. Paul’s Cathedral
Quite the view from the top!
The Amazing Lloyd’s Building (or the “Sonic the Hedgehog” building if you are me)
The Gherkin
The Monument to the Great Fire of London 1666
Various Sculptures…
Lily Cole on a horse outside of St. Pancras…for some reason?
Tate Britain Museum/V&A/British Museum/Museum of Natural History
I want this chandelier. I must must must have it.
Is is weird that I even want to hug taxidermy sheep?
SEXY COFFEE BREAK!
St. Katherine’s Dock
Deathcab Show in Brixton!
The Tower of London
Tower Bridge, NOT “LONDON BRIDGE”
The Shard (in progress)
Buckingham Palace
Mr. Sunglasses man.
Westminster Abbey
The Palace of Westminster (“Big Ben” is actually the name of the BELL inside the clock tower, not the clock)
Stonehenge !!!!!!!!!!!! (1.5 hours outside of London)
And SHEEP!
DON’T RUN FROM ME!!! I’M HERE TO LOVE YOU!!!
Eventually these magical three weeks came to an end, and while standing next to Rodin’s Masterwork “The Burghers of Calais”…
…my sweetheart dropped to one knee and asked ME to spend forever traveling the world IN LOVE. WITH HIM! <3
GAAHHHH!!!
I said YES of course, and we drank champagne and celebrated not only our happy news, but my Fiance's 33rd Birthday! WHAT A DAY!
I told you it was a sparkler!
You should go to London. Even if you don’t get proposed to by a dashing Brit outside of Westminster. It’s rad in more ways that I can ever explain to you. Just go.
P.S.
Need a Pint? Maybe something a bit more mature?
Down the street from our flat in Clapham…
They’ve got you covered!
Great pictures you have here!
Thanks! I have really fallen in love with photography in the last year!
Great pics!
Oh my GOSH those clouds are amazing — what stunning images!
I’ve never been to London, but I have to say, your pix make me want to go…
Great pictures, you got to see so many amazing things!
Outstanding mixes of sites and art. I haven’t been to London yet …. but I did say yet! Thanks for sharing your experiences and for reminding me to get there!
Such fun to read and look at. Congratulations!
Some stunning pictures there. And congratulations!
Aww! Thank you! <3
As someone who has been away from London for a year and miissed it almost every day, I looked through your pix with a big fat smile on my face. Congratulations on your sparkler. If this is your take on London as a first time visitor, I really look forward to even lovelier work when you know it well.
I’ve been here for 4 months now and it is simply amazing. I have SO many photos. I’ll get them all posted eventually! Thanks for reading!
Thanks for sharing your photos. Hope i will be able to share to everyone these kind of photos one i get to London. I just don’t know when….
I went to London when I was 18 and you just brought back a whooole lot of amazing memories. I love your photos and your story with them.
Thank you so much!!
Beautiful photographs. It seems like you had a great time in that part of world.

Breathtaking.
London is a great city. Awesome photography…
These are simply AMAZING! I used to live in London and I couldn’t imagine it being captured any better. Truly stunning photos and congrats on your engagement!!
Hey thanks! It’s a really special place to get to live for sure! I’m actually married now, if you go backwards in my posts you’ll see some wedding related stuff.
Lovely collection of photos and memories. Thanks so much for sharing them and reminding me of summer in London. I’ve missed it (not lived there in many years, now) All the interesting things that make me smile without having to deal with the hastle of the traffic and underground. Thanks so much
That is so great to hear! I’ve just fallen madly and hopelessly in love with the UK.
I feel shamed! I have lived in and around London for all of my 32 years and haven’t done half of that. I suppose you only do it when on a timescale. Love the pictures and love the fact you love London.
Well, since I’ve moved here most of my photos have been from my travels around the UK and less London-y, but I’ve been taking my camera out with me more, so I plan to keep capturing the magic!
I love your photos. They look amazing – all the colours just pop out!
And that ring is stunning – he has great taste! Congratulations!
Thank you so much! He’s a keeper!
Tons of really great photos! Glad I stumbled on all of this stuff.
So am I! Thanks
I’ve been in London almost two years ago for the first time and I fell in love with her because of the very magical atmosphere.
The things that impressed me most were the Tate Britain Museum, Westminster Abbey and the Thames at 5 am. And also Camden shops, yes.
Your photos are so beautiful!
[I'm sorry for my bad English.]
I live in London and you’ve taken some photos of some lovely places I knew nothing about! Although I’ve not been here that long! I’m definitely visiting St. Katherine’s Docks soon. Congratulations on the engagement.
great photos!!
Way to make me extra jealous that I can’t afford to fly over to London & explore every nook & cranny! ::sob:: You are just going to have to take many many many more pictures so I can live vicariously through you
These are gorgeous, btw! And congrats on getting Freshly Pressed 
Yay!
AWWWWW LAUREN! THANKS SWEETHEART! I MISS YOU! COME SEE ME ASAP! XXOO
What kind of camera? The pictures are really nice.
Olympus EPL-1. It’s really fun to shoot with. Light weight, and very user friendly. And obviously, the photos turn out nicely! I <3 my camera. I'm ready to explore some new lenses though!
My brother is a lens expert. I’ll have to ask him when i see him.
What can I say? WOW!!!
Incredible shots!
Hey thanks! I really loved taking them!
Beautiful pictures! I love London though haven’t spent long there, your pics make me very excited for my upcoming trip there.
I hope you have fun! Glad you enjoyed the photos!
Ahhh I LOVE your photos!!! Especially Westminster Abbey.
I’m a London local and I still love it as much as a tourist would!!
Congratulations by the way too xx
Thanks! I love taking them. You know, I haven’t actually gone into Westminster Abbey yet! I’m waiting for my parents to visit in a few months. VERY excited!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos. They are fabulous, and the two of you are a beautiful couple. Connie

Oh wow, your photos look as though it’s always sunny in England
! St. Katharine Docks would always be my favourite – drove our boat to London and stayed there for a few days in 2007 for our honeymoon (we live in the south east, close to Windsor). Cheers!
I swear it was sunny and beautiful the entire time I was visiting! I’m seeing the cold and grey everyone moans about now that I live here!
Great stuff, girl! I’m going to Italy this November so I’m too excited! Great blog.
I’m super super excited! I just want to shut my eyes and open them and be heading to the airport! Thursday!!
The photos you’ve taken are really good, some are Great! I love the thistle shot that you captured. Also, I’ve both worked and been entertained in London but I didn’t quite realise that there were so many sculptures.
Fantastic capture of our great Capital. Thank you.
There are hundreds! Especially if you walk along the Thames!
Found your site from Freshly Pressed and am so happy with the accident! Beautiful images and content that I could’ve written (because I relate to it and share your sense of humor and wonder, not because I have been or have such beautiful images, etc haha). I actually have a San Diego for the first time post scheduled later this week on my blog and am ready to go check out London soon!
So sweet of you to say! I’ve really just started my journey as a traveler and photographer…we shall see where it takes me!
How did you manage to get such great pictures inside those museums?
Luck! I took hundreds of photos in those museums and these are really the best ones. I had a ton of lighting issues. I’m still a beginner at photography, with zero equipment and basic knowledge so I often have problems with low light.
thanks for sharing your photo’s (they’re lovely) and the beautiful art work you saw. i can’t wait to see London
very nice
What a wonderful post! Glad you enjoyed London!
I am so jealous! I SO wish I could live in England. Because of it’s beauty. I’ve always love Great Britain, even from a young age. I like to think that I’m a Brit stuck in an American body.
You’re pictures are fantastic! Thank you for sharing them!
Congratulations on your engagement! You’re very lucky!
Well we are married now! But thank you! England is amazing!
Love these pictures! You have a great eye! You even made those stuffed rabbits in the cycle of life diorama look appealing. Really enjoyed these. I miss London.
You’ve caught these really well and added a new perspective. I really should get around more, or at least wear my glasses when I do as I miss everything. Thanks for reminding me what’s on the doorstep!
Great pictures! I’ve lived 30mins from London my whole life and did not know that fact about Big Ben – you learn something new every day
Oh and congratulations!
Fantastic array of photos! London is such a brilliant city and makes me proud to be English. I love hearing how good a time tourists and such like have when they visit the city. Although you’ve got to understand that there is a lot more to the United Kingdom than just London!
And those sculptures in the sand by the Thames, did you do them yourself? Or just lucky happen-chance? Never seen anything like that on the banks of the river before!
If you go back on my blog, there are tons of posts from around the UK
1. Congratulations!
2. Fantastic photos.
3. I adored London (just came back), but you’ve convinced me I need to go back there in the summer. Just maybe not this summer, as I don’t think I could handle the Olympics crowds!
Thank you!! I am not looking forward to the Olympic insanity.
Great pictures! I especially like the sand artwork, looks like you had an amazing trip!
Loved your pictures
and congrats on your marriage, since the engagement was not too long ago and you then referred to your partner as hubby so I might be not that late on congratulating 
Thanks! We are married now! We got married in September. If you go back through older posts you will find lots of fun pics and travels!
Lovely captures !! Quite the trip, I’m sure..
I LOVE your photos! Congratulations on your engagement! How did you get such perfectly fluffy clouds?! I just went to England this summer but your travel pix look better than mine!!
My husband says that I brought the sunny Southern weather with me, but I think it’s just luck!
Congratulations to you and your hubby! Your photos are so beautiful. I’m going to London next month, and this blog entry just made me even more excited.
Thanks! I hope you have a fabulous time!!!
Lovely photos! This makes me so nostalgic for London I can hardly stand it…
All of your photographs were terrific and congratulations!
London is vibrant in your pictures! Summer seems to be a much better time to visit than in winter when I did. Kudos to some great pic!
These pictures are absolutely beautiful! I’ll be heading to England sometime this year; really hope to visit St. Katherine’s Dock, it looks gorgeous!
It is truly a hidden gem!
Wow, what incredible photos! So happy that you shared your beautiful engagement time with us … what a portfolio of London bliss!!!
Wow, I’ve lived in London before and done only a handful of the things you accomplished in three weeks. Brilliant photos.
I LOVE this. Beautiful photos & congrats!!!
Going to London for the first time in May and this made me so excited.

A beautiful city for a gorgeous couple and congratulations on your engagement! Your ring is stunning, too! London is a city that is very high on my bucket list. Great post.
Those pictures are great! Thanks for sharing them
I wish my camera was that good when I went. I got home to look at the pictures and they are all nasty and horrible quality. Some day I will get a good camera and go back.
BTW, You and your man have the most beautiful eyes. I have blue eyes, but y’alls are like crazy blue. I’d have to get like contacts for mine to look that good.
So nice of you to say! Thank you!!!

London is very beautiful!
Look forward this year’s london olympic games
You must have had great weather… I can’t believe the bright blue skies and dazzling clouds in each of your photos. Congratulations on your engagement/marriage.
Stunning photos (of London and your eyes)! I’m so jealous, I’ve been dreaming of London for about half my life already.
Reblogged this on Wip's Blog and commented:
I just want to share this beautiful London experience from gimmeyummy.
What a beautiful place! Stunning photos as well. Seems you had a great time in London.
I love these photos, the lighting/colour effects on some are amazing. I really enjoy seeing my city through the eyes of visitors, especially those who love it as much as me. Many congrats on being FP’d and even bigger congrats on being married!!
Really good pictures…

I’ve gain more knowledge and good information from your post thanks.
Wow! Your photos look amazing and congratulations on your marriage; many happy returns. I am curious to know if you would be kind enough to reveal the type of camera you are using. You have definitely re-ignited my love for photography.
Cheers!!
Kennedy
I am more than happy to! I use an Olympus EPL-1…and LOVE it!!!!
I’m love’n it! It’s really amazing and gorgeous city!
Amazing pictures! Love the picture of the sofa in the sand
london is such an amazing city
I went to London around May 2011, but seeing your incredible photos made me wish I stayed longer! There’s so much I didn’t get to do and see! Love your shots, I wish my camera wasn’t so crappy and that I had your eye.
Lovely pictures and congratulations on the engagement
Brought back memories. A year ago, I went down on one knee and proposed to my girlfriend on the Tower Bridge, when she was visiting London. We got married last month 
Congratulations to you both! London is the perfect place for romance!
Lovely photos! I visited London for the first time in December and am going back again in March. What a city!! I love it too (though did not get engaged to any brits while in the area…)
Love the stuff in the sand. Really cool keyboard.
Great photos!
Your photos make me wish I’m back in London! They are stunning photos.
Ah, London. I fell in love with that city. <3
Congratulations on the engagement. I’ve been living here for the past 6 years and enjoy it. Your photos turned out spectacular.
Beautiful – you’ve made me look at my hometown in a whole new way. I’ve certainly never seen Lily Cole on a horse at King’s Cross!
Congratulations too
What a lovely ending to a beautiful story. Congratulations!
Wow ! Brilliant pictures. I love the way you have presented London here. I think I should go to London soon again!
Great photos- fascinating to see London from an outsider’s perspective. Sometimes it’s easy to forget how nice it can be living here…
bellissime!!! Congratulations!
Didn’t have time to see em all before work, but very nice variety in the subject matter of your pictures! I enjoyed your post
Gorgeous pictures of our great city – I grew up near Stonehenge in Wiltshire and have lived in London for half of my life, and I know I will never tire of it. Even in winter and horrible weather, there is always so much going on here and so many interesting people to share it with. It’s really lovely to hear that visitors get such a kick out of coming here (like I do going to NY). The two of you make a beautiful couple, congratulations on your engagement – I wonder where you’ll end up living?!
We live in Clapham!
Aww..so sweet. enjoyed looking at your pictures- of the summer London we all love- but cannot fathom ever seeing again as I look out of the window to the cold grey mush….lol. Congratulations, will you now become a Londoner as well?
Well, we married and I moved here in September! So yes! I’m very much a Londoner!
If you read older posts you can catch up on the details…
Stunning photos! I am a WordPress photoblogger too, and I don’t have as many photos in my Architecture section as you, but I’m working on it! Great job.
Well I didn’t have much architecture photography up until this past summer! Keep at it! Travel!
Wonderful pictures. They bring back many memories for me, since I’ve had the chance to visit London a few times and enjoyed it every time. My favorite memories are Harrods and taking the Buckingham Palace tour….something I thought I’d never be able to do in my lifetime! And congrats on your engagement. May you both have a long and amazing life together.
I love this entry – London is majestic, magic and my favourite city in the world. Thank you so much for sharing the moments of experiencing it for the first time, especially in the light of true love. Great stuff
beautiful photos great engagement what else does one need in life.
Wow
I really enjoyed viewing your post! I love London too and being from South Africa makes it even more exciting!! I really like Covent garden and Camden 
Congrats on your marriage 
<3 xoxox
I lived in London for 4 years and this made me absolutely homesick!
Your pictures alone make me want to visit! I see why they’re hosting the Olympics this summer.
Reblogged this on Madame Hombard and commented:
Beautiful photos. Graze if you are interested in some beautful colors—-
Really great photos! Although I am not seeing why you cal the Amazing Lloyd’s Building Sonic the Hedgehog…
It reminds me of the OIL OCEAN ZONE in SONIC 2!!!!!
CHECK IT OUT!
Beautiful photos. I’m not a fan of cities, but for London I make an exception–it’s chock full of wonderful.
Nice pics, but truth be told, London kinda sucks … I live there, I know
HA! I suppose every city has it’s negatives. It could be worse my friend!
Oh London, I want to be there so TT//v//TT, wonderful…*sob, sob*!
Nice post but—HOLY CRAP that is a lot of photos at once! Break it up for us, love
I don’t do dial-up darling.
You have very nice photos. I like them. London is just very nice. I wish I could visit the place one day.
The pictures are a travel book in themselves – great output. Thanks for posting!!
No photo of fish and chips… my only criticism.
If you go back and read earlier posts, you will see fish & chips. This post was long overdue and there were many UK related posts prior to me getting around to this one!
Awesome pictures. Brought me back to the month and a half I lived out there for summer school. The only thing missing was pictures of the tube, Mind The Gap.
Congratulations on your engagement. And what fabulous photos! Great to see someone else who posts LOADS of photos! Have you used any filters or effects on these?
Thanks! I always adjust the shadows if the lighting is lacking! But that’s about it!
These photos are incredible! I really wish I could travel there just from looking at these
absolutely beautiful! i was once also madly in love in clapham. enjoy it, the man, the marriage and the city! cheers!!
Judging from these photos looks like you had a splendid time in London. I was in London in 1991 and didn’t see half of what you saw. Though I did have a good time.
I just spent four months living/working in London, and absolutely fell in love. These photos bring back so many wonderful memories. They are beautifully taken, too.
However, I did not see that statue of the women looking to be in some sort of water? And the woman on the ledge of a fountain with a paper and pen. I really wish I could have seen that! I think I would have loved it, and would have been my favorite statue. Where were those at in London?
Thanks for the post, and congrats on the engagement. What a dream come true to get engaged in London!
That fountain was tucked away in a back alley in a residential area right on the Thames by past Tower Bridge. We just sort of stumbled upon it!
That’s one of the best things about London. There is so much to see and do. So much history. The architecture is incredible. New York City seems bland in comparison. Don’t get me wrongi, I like living in NYC. The theatre district of both cities is comparable. But London has so many more attractions to offer.
I remember much of that from my visit there, but so much has changed in 10 years.
And your pictures are so much better composed than mine. Nice stuff!
Reblogged this on My Favorite Spaces.
Wow, awesome pics. I’ve lived in this city for about five years now and it still never fails to amaze me. There’s so much to do and explore. It’s an incredible place to live. You managed to see quite a bit!
they are popping alive!
Amazing! It’s all I can say. You must be really happy. Keep posting a lot of travel pictures. I will surely go back to read and check out our blog from time to time. What camera did you use taking pictures by the way?
Thanks. I have a ton of travel photography posted in older entries if you go back and look! I use an Olympus EPL-1.
beautiful shots of London! i love this city especially in summer
glad you enjoyed it here
Great photos! They make me homesick. I went the opposite way. I’m a Brit who moved to the US for love. I haven’t been in London since Feb 2005. I have to go back soon! Congrats on your engagement by the way even though it happened months ago
Beautiful photos. I can’t get enough of London and your pictures reminded me of how inspiring the city can really be.
Congratulations on your engagement!
Amazing photographs!
Oh how I miss London…for the exact same reason…there is so much to do and see – it is endless ! I would love to move back there again with my husband and daughter but for now “I’ll keep London locked in my head, until we meet again”.
Thank you for this post !
Lovely to see London through fresh eyes!
All the wonderful sights that us Brits take for granted!
Loved all the pics but fell about laughing at the last one:)
Congratulations, you came to live with us at a time when the econmoy is inside out.
What camera do you use? Your pictures are lovely and I love the blue in your skies.
10x!! for the pics they’r just brilliant…
I’m not much of an art lover but looking at your pics think ill turn into one
Reblogged this on cornucopia.
Wow!! lovely and amazing photos
Great pics! I was in London for a week last September. Amazing place!
Congrats on your marriage and on being Freshly Pressed! I’ve missed London for a long time now, and these pictures have just increased the desire to really return! Thanks for sharing your journey!
Congratulations on your engagement ! What a way to propose
I love these photo’s you have a real eye for photography and I want to visit London even more now then before !
Thank you so much!
Great pics – thanks for sharing. I’ve just done London for the first time over the last couple of weeks. There is sooo much to see. Although it hasn’t been nearly as sunny and gorgeous as in your photos, it’s a city with plenty of beauty and culture. Congrats on engagement and being Freshly Pressed.
Thanks girl!
Congratulations on the engagement!!!!!! The pictures are great!!!!
Grazie!
I live in London for 5 years now. It’s an amazing city.
I loved our trip to London, so was happy to “revisit” by seeing your pics. Congrats!
wonderful stuff… i’ve been to london myself and loved it…
I am going to London for the first time on Saturday and you just got me really really excited! If you only had one weekend to spend in London what would you recommend seeing?
ps The story of your engagement is heartwarming and your ring is absolutely stunning!
Hmmmm that’s tough. Well, the museums are all free, which is AMAZING. I’d say the V&A is definitely worth the trip! Maybe take a stroll along the Thames and see all the bridges, sculptures, etc. Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, Camden Town…There is SO MUCH to do. I wish you luck deciding!
I would do this…
Take the tube to London Bridge and visit Borough Market (arrive for 10am as its very very busy) walk around the market, which is a foodies haven. Whilst there, buy some fresh oysters and some prosecco and go sit in the grounds of Southwark Cathdral. From there head west along the river thames and stop off at Tate (free art gallery, stunning building) and from there you could cross the river to take in St Pauls Cathedral…
Come south again and continue along the river and you will come to South Bank which is worth seeing, very atmospheric, book sellers, skate boarders and London Eye.
Cross Hungerford bridge and check out Gordons Wine Bar for a glass of Sherry or Port before heading to Trafalgar Square, then into Soho and then Covent Garden, then, then – theres so much – have a wicked time and contact me if you want any more tips – I live here!
Wow! With the photos you shared here made me wanna go to London now! And oh… congratulations! It’s more than a perfect vacay for sure.
Incredible photos. Congratulations on your engagement!
Thank you!!!
Thank you for the gorgeous pics!
I’m very curious about the love story behind how you met your fiance!
Romance author,
Tibby Armstrong
Well, if you read back to older entries you can discover all of these answers!
I love London so much! Your photos make me want to go back =/ Congrats!
Gotta love London! Truly my favorite city. Although I just moved to Nashville and it’s high up on my list as well
Fantastic shots.
Well, Nashville will always be home to me, but London is pretty amazing!
This is probably the cutest photoblog I have read till date! A romantic journey of sorts! You both make an amazing couple! Have an awesome time travelling together! Do drop into India too.

Great pics – I too love London (live 2 hours away in Suffolk) If you’ve read Dickens you can create a wonderful tour around central London visiting [most] of the places in his books from centuries ago.
I have lived in London most of my life, and this post has taught me 2 things.
1. You can get to the top of St Pauls.
2. There is an interesting tower thing outside of CharingX. My work colleague was there last night, and missed it as well.
It’s really interesting to see London through an outsiders eyes.
Great post!
Looks like you took a picture of everything worth taking a picture of – great photos, thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your experience. It brought back an ache for London, that only people who love London understand.
Congratulations on your engagement. I love London. I like how you can always find some green space in the city.
Congratulations on your engagement!
Beautiful photos. I love London too, I used to live in the U.K. so yes, there is always something new or going on. And, you’re such a cute couple, congratulations!
Beautiful photos! I was in London a couple of years ago and fell in love with the city. You photos definitely brought back some great memories!
Your photos are wonderful. What camera and effect are you using? Glad you enjoyed London! And congratulation on your engagement!

Congratulations on your engagement and being Freshly Pressed!!
Amazing post, makes me feel like I’m in London looking around. I just might visit there just to marvel at everything! It looks so beautiful!
Your photos is so great…
Blue sky in London? This was such a nice photo journey. I saw many of those things in London, but didn’t see them so well.
the pictures are very nice, if I may know what camera you use?
The pictures are very beautiful .
I plan on going to London one day, but if I don’t, I may just have to bookmark this post. AWESOME photos, especially of the architecture. The way the sunlight played on a few of them, I thought there was some Photoshop work involved.
I would LOVE to learn photoshop!
So happy for both of you!! Thanks for sharing the side of London I wish I could see my self.
it’s so amazing, both the pix and your story

Beautiful pictures and congratulations! sidenote- you and your fiance both have really striking eyes, best of luck to you!
Image of Buddha in London? I have thought it is possible.
Love all your pics.. you must have one super nice camera and a great eye for detail. I just got back from England, I was in Andover the entire time and I didn’t get to see London much….
CONGRATS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT!!! Love the ring and you two look completely stunning together. What a romantic way to propose!
First of all congratulations on your engagment!
Second I love your photos! It was so nice to see London again with those beautiful clouds. Seems like you had wonderful weather. Saw lots of familiar places, like St. paul’s, The tower and many more, but also some new to me. Loved to see Stonehenge too. Amazing place.
ps. Good to read I am not the only one being behind with my photos. I am working on my weekend London photos from mid June now.
Wow! This is a great tour of London, by proxy. Makes me want to pack my bags and find a flight right away. It seems as though this post might have worked better as two (there is so much material here); one on London and another on London’s museums.

I loved your photos! London is such a beautiful city, you captured it’s finest parts beautifully.
I grew up in the town closest to Stonehenge but I’ve been away from there for 6 months, it’s such a lovely part of England.
ps – congratulations!
Every time I look at someone’s photos of London, it makes me want to return!
