Picture: Sculptures and images of animals River Thames London » Filename: LonAnimals12xA608.jpg

Composite image of photos of sculptures and paintings of animals picked out with my zoom lens close to the River Thames in London. The animals are: Hind painting from the Golden Hind ship, griffin from the City of London coat of arms, phoenix fro St Paul's Cathedral, hind figurehead and lion carving, both from the Golden Hind, butterfly and spider from the gates to the Globe Theatre, lion from St Paul's, eagle from the Gloge and awareness-raising Asian elephant next to St Paul's. I intend to complete this at a later date. To see a larger size version of this image click here

I had just seen an exhibition about photographic series at the Tate Modern: images taken from the same viewpoint on a particular theme, photographers August Sander, Rineke Dijkstra, Simryn Gill and others. I wanted to do something different from just taking the usual tourist photos, so I focused on images of animals. This is a theme that will appeal to children, including my 8 year old daughter. I advise all photographers to seek inspiration by looking at photo exhibitions.
