We can finally count the time until the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games in days, not years.

The Royal Park in Greenwich will be the site of the Equestrian Events of the London 2012 Olympics.

This was the scene earlier this month for the London Olympic 2012 Equestrian and Modern Pentathlon Test Event, with the National Maritime Museum and Canary Wharf beyond.

It at least gives you an idea of how things will look in 365 days time!

Party Decorations

One week from the Royal Wedding of Kate and William and London is in party mood.

This was the scene on Regent Street.

The sun was out and the crowds were enjoying the decorations.

UPDATE - More Royal Wedding decoration pictures as Canvas Prints and Posters are now available at www.London-Prints.com. Click here for the Royal Wedding Celebrations Gallery.

Spring has Sprung in London

Buckingham Palace, resplendent in Spring flowers.

Of course, this will be a dull show in comparison to the decorations for the Royal Wedding of Kate and William, taking place in just three weeks, on the 29th April 2011!

London’s Parks in Autumnal Glory!

All around the parks of London, the leaves are now turning, Autumn is in full swing.

This is Hyde Park, which has to be at its prettiest at this time of year.

London City Hall’s Helical Staircase

The Spiral Staircase at London’s City Hall.

The structure delights the eye and boggles the mind. From every angle, there’s another pleasing intersection of curves and lines.

This image is one of my favourites, from probably a record number to be shot at such a small location.

Raindrops keep falling on my lens…

This is the first of what I hoped would be a great themed group of

Rain in London.

Of course, since I shot this, not enough rain has fallen for people to up their umbrellas.

The joy of travel photography… never quite the right weather!

Alone in a Crowd…

This Sentry at Horse Guards’ Parade was distinctly on his own. If the stream of people wasn’t flowing past, they were posing for their tourist snaps…

Everyone jumped out of the way when he snapped to attention and marched off through the crowd.

Sunrise on the Thames

It was a cold morning, but the light on St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Millennium Bridge was beautiful.

The Victorians…

they certainly knew how to make a statement with their buildings.

This is the wonderful Central Hall of the Natural History Museum in London.

… and a Happy New Year!

Looking forward to a rest over the Festive Period, but have lots of interesting shoots planned for the New Year, Scotland and its Whisky for a start!
