St. Pancras Station in London, which isn't the station from the Harry Potter books and films (King's Cross Station) but is the one right next door.

You can also see traffic on Euston Road, and O'Neills Pub.

This is Covent Garden market, looking south towards the Doc Marten flagship store.

One thing I love about this particular photo is that some guy I never met, the guy in the dark shirt towards the bottom right of the photo, walked right into the shot, right into the vanishing point, and it honest to God looks like he's posing for me. Maybe he saw that I was taking a photo and decided to pose as a lark, or maybe it's just a coincidence and he just was standing, looking at something. I think he makes the photo all the stronger.

I did a drawing based on this photo.

One of the best photographs I've ever taken, a wide shot of people going to and fro across the various traffic islands in the middle of Piccadilly Circus, with the famous lighted billboards in the background.

This was July 2000, so the featured logos at Piccadilly Circus were Samsung, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Carlsberg, Nescafé, TDK (which they seem to have made blue since I was last in London, when it was green), and Sanyo.

The Boots Chemists (pharmacy) below the giant McDonald's sign is where I bought the Kodak Advantix Camera I took this photo with.

You can see a scan of a drawing I did based on this photograph here.

EDIT: This photo has been remastered here.

Trafalgar Square, looking north towards the National Gallery. I love how I managed to get pretty much all of the National Gallery in this shot and not just the dome and Roman columns.

You can see a few of the famous Trafalgar Square pigeons, but, by July 2000, London was already beginning to crack down on them, for sanitary reasons.

I love seeing the fountain, the Soft Ice ice cream truck, and all the tourists in this shot.

I believe the statue is of King George IV on horseback. You can also see one of the lions surrounding Nelson's column, but I didn't take a picture of that (you can see a million photos of that elsewhere).

I turned this photograph into a drawing of Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery
