Back in 2013, as part of the regular Monday
photoblog slot In & Around London, I posted five pics under the headline
There's Always Something Odd Going On.
A stunt, a photoshoot, a film set, London seems to be an endless parade of
weird and wonderful happenings… with an endless parade of Londoners streaming by and taking it all in their stride.
Wandering through Trafalgar Square
yesterday, for example, I saw a woman filling the fountains with plastic
bottles…
…and the Centre Point lights leaning up against the National Gallery.
(Here's a reminder of where the Centre Point lights should be, half a mile up the road and some 380 feet up in the air…)
The famous square is getting ready t take
part in Lumiere London, a mini festival of light installations taking place
across the capital at locations
such as Trafalgar Square, Regent Street and King's Cross – full programme here: www.visitlondon.com/lumiere/programme
The festival starts tonight and runs until
the 17th January.
Here's the blurb…
Get ready for Lumiere London: the
biggest-ever light festival to hit the capital. Produced by Artichoke and supported by the Mayor of London,
for four evenings in January a host of international artists will illuminate
the city from 6:30pm to 10:30pm each night.

projections, interactive installations and other extraordinary light works.
