The streets of London

For this time, I put together some images which I could not really fit into any specific topics of the previous weeks. So some of these were taken back in March, although the majority is already from April. They are the results of the small walks I had around Elephant and Castle when I had some time. I think they do not need any further explanations, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
/I know, I showed you several squirrels before, but I still get surprised when I meet one, on my way to the uni, and I just have to take a picture of them./

London by night - Tower Bridge

On 19th March, there was the biggest full Moon in 18 years. I decided to go and take some pictures about the so called "Supermoon". So before sunset, I had a walk to the River Thames, as I hoped to find a good spot there. Its closest point to my home is at Tower Bridge, which seemed to be a good environment enough for the Moon.
While waiting for the Moon's appearance I took some trials about the bridge and the Tower, this is one of them:



When the Moon turned up on the horizon, it looked quite big and unusual indeed. However, after it moved to a better place regarding the composition of the photo, its look was just regular. The Moon shooting was not successful, but I thought I upload the pictures at least becasue of the Tower Bridge.
