A few images I took on St. George's day the other day whilst in London. Of course, have a lens hood on your camera around any public buildings are you are treated like a criminal. There are variations of these shots all over the web, so I wanted to process them a little differently to see how they came out.

Any opinions, C&C most welcome of course. Thanks Kevin

Fantastic shots Kevin. Number 1 in particular is very striking.

Great job.

Nice processing... well done.
I am curious too though, have you been treated badly while taking pics lately? Wasn't sure what you meant by the lens hood/criminal thing there.

It just seems that if you have a DSLR with a decent lens the police were all over me telling me I couldn't take photos. Yet, right next to me, were tourists with P&S's taking shots of exactly the same place.
