Urban
London defines urban in a classic and established sense. I would not hesitate to call it home. In all the ways that New York City disappointed me, London impressed. Our trip was fantastic, having a nice mix of perfect moments and difficulties to overcome.
I have posted my 20 best London photos. I may post a few more in the near future, maybe from SB’s collection.
The above photo is of stencil art on a London corner. Stencil graffiti seems to be the hot thing right now, all thanks to Bansky. I also browsed a few sneakers only stores, meeting the demands of a crazy cult of sneaker collectors. I was excited to see this urbanity in real life, like so many trends I read about on-line but don’t get to experience first-hand.
Glad to know I’m not the only one disappointed by NYC…

Your photos are so fantastic that I want to go back to London right away… hmmm
Maybe I could get a couple of your photos enlarged and hang them in my apartment instead… :-)

Wow, those were some incredible photos. You totally have “it” (whatever it is, you got it). I loved London too. I don’t know what it is…
