London photo: do not feed the pigeons
Understandable by tourists from everywhere.

One last photo from the Barbican Conservatory…

The longer I walked around the Barbican Conservatory, the more I began to feel like I was in the greenhouse on a space station…

More alien-looking plants at the Barbican Conservatory.

Far from just walling in London plant life of, the Barbican Conservatory is full of alien-seeming organisms that could never survive in the city outside.

The longer I walked around the Barbican Conservatory, the more at peace I started to feel in this serene pocket of jungle in the middle of London.

There’s something, well, brutal in the Brutalist concrete and steel of the Barbican Conservatory…

I only just discovered that the Barbican has a conservatory…

Unlike on the actual day of Victory in Europe in 1945, no one was in the fountains last Sunday afternoon.

Admiralty Arch, at the opposite end of the Mall from Buckingham Palace, festooned with flags to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe.
