Being in London last weekend, I arrived in the vicinity of Buckingham Palace just at the right time for the big rehearsal (the actual celebration will be tomorrow). I was a bit too far from the happening and only had the kit lens (18-55). I wished I had something longer, but some of them didn't turn out too bad...

Looks like it is going to be a big splash. I like #4.

Great shots Didier, especially considering the lack of a long lens. I like 1 and 2 best...

It might be an idea for you to clone out the horse droppings, they're fairly noticable...

Thank you guys!

They're not horse droppings :o I like to live my trace somewhere on a shot :o :o

Number one is a heavy crop. Non-cropped it would look like that ;-)

Nice shots. I would probably clone out the road apples though. :-)
