My wife and I spent a few relaxing days in London, with day and overnight trips to Salisbury and Arundel. Thoroughly enjoyed walking around, even in the rain.

Fabulous photographs!!! Just gorgeous. Exquisite pp.
I never would have guessed the first photo was of London! We usually see Buckingham Palace and/or bridges. This is a modern London. A new view for me!
I really like the angle in the first cathedral. Straight on, we would not have seen the arches as clearly.
The baptismal photo is incredible. I love the two tourist groups at the front. I love the detail that one can see, including the words around the baptismal. The only thing that confused me, at first, were the statues on the sarcophagi. I think that parts are overexposed, and if there were more shadows, one could more clearly see that they are statues?
The cathedral photo is gorgeous, especially in its detail. That's why I would suggest, if you don't mind, to pp over the topiaries that are covered. For me, they are distracting, and somehow cloning other green bushes there would make the picture picture-perfect.
Very beautiful, enjoyable series!

Wow! I didn't realize that Picasso had secretly rebuilt London! Your images uncovered a surrealistic aspect of modern Britain that I never suspected.
I really love all of these but I must say the one of the Baptismal Font drew my attention the longest. The wonderful reflections in the water played some real tricks on my eyes. Once I sorted it all out I realized just what a terrific image you had there.
