London: A Tourists Guide

It was my first day at work today in London, and having lived here for the past two year, definitely worked to my advantage as I knew what, where and how I wanted to photograph life in London and it's subcultures. London is a place of diverse backgrounds. This is what makes it such a cosmopolitan city and keeps it being different from other large capital cities around Europe.

If you are in London there is a good chance, you are going to find what you are looking for - even if it come with a hefty price tag. Today, I spent the day roaming the steerts in search for good subject matters to photograph. I found these two gentlemen, on the road to Buckingham Palace, alongside Green Park.

I figured they would capture a subject, which anyone could associate London with, these are two of the queens guards, made famous by Hollywood - they are a iconic tourist attraction; whom endless amount of people have taken photographs beside. These guards, secure the surrounding premises of the Queen of Englands treasures and residential areas.

Yes, they are not allowed to move - unless advised to by higher authority or the end of a shift.
