2011 Christmas lights, Covent Garden, London, by Cybermyth13.

The 2011 Christmas lights and decorations are very similar to last year at Covent Garden with the red baubles but the star lights have been replaced retro glitter balls and spot lights. The lights are reflected onto the ceiling and the side arches have extra lights so it make the halls seem brighter.

P is for Pavilion

Reflections Serpentine 2009 Pavilion 2, by Cybermyth13.

Each year the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens, London, has a temporary summer pavilion designed by an architect who has not built in the UK before. This produces some interesting results.

In 2009 the deign was by the Japanese architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa of the architecture firm SANAA. One of the features of the building was the reflective ceiling.

For more of my pictures of the pavilion see here.
