Van in East London

So you are on your way to work and you see a face looking down the road at you. First I thought it was a large mural on the side of a house but then I realised it was on the side of a van. It is called "Tokyo Rain" and is by graffiti artist Dan Kitchener (DanK).

Hanging Shoes of Vauxhall


It is always good to have a camera with you even on a dull day so that you can capture the odd things you see, such as these three pairs of shoes hanging on telephone wires in Vauxhall, South London.
