When I think of London, I often see gray. But not this time. This creative photo from Sarah Landau, a professional touring lighting designer, paints the traditional London skyline a little differently. Featuring the eye, Big Ben, and the Thames, this spooky image is a bit thought-provoking. My thought at this moment: I'd like to visit London again... immediately.
Wish we'd feature one of ...

Big Ben stands almost secondary to the car lights that whiz by in this wonderful shot by fiznatty. Think you have what it ...
