"Big Ben", London, 2003

Hope this is at least a passable effort at a hackneyed target?

Nice job finding a new perspective. Ben seems a little tilted, though, doesn't he?

It's not often that we see some greenery in a shot of St Stephens Tower (Big Ben is a bell housed in the tower - as you probably know), so this is a refreshing change.

Technically, of course, this IS a picture of 'Big Ben' because the clock face is prominent.

 

On the same London trip, we were standing on Tower Bridge when some young French tourists asked us, "Where is the Tower of London?" We pointed to it, but they appeared confused. A brief exchange in French followed, from which we learned that they actually MEANT St. Stephen's/Big Ben.

:D

good view

interesting different perspective of a known landmark
