Long May She Rain
In honour of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, we’re celebrating all things British this weekend. However, one aspect of the UK that it’s hard to feel so celebratory about is the rainy weather. That said, we’re loving how photographer Gavin Hammond makes something beautiful out of the remnants of Britain’s often-pretty-crap weather. Hammond takes photos of London’s iconic sights as reflected in puddles.

A-maze-ing!
The other week I got lost in London…in the middle of Trafalgar Square!
This temporary maze is another example of what London can offer to tourists and locals for free. And whilst walking among the nearly 8-feet-tall hedges, visitors have the opportunity to learn many interesting facts about the capital. What a shame it only lasted a week! How better to spend an hour on a sunny day than to get lost in a fantastical labyrinth and expand your knowledge at the same time?
The only question remains: does it remind you of the adventures of Harry Potter or the scary ending of The Shining?
