Taken with my P&S during a weekend visit to London. I am lucky enough to be going two weekends in a row, so will have some more next week (not P&S) from my "big" camera!

This is a very quick edit and flaws abound, need to correct the perspective properly, but didn't have time this morning and wanted to post something as I'm a week behind already.

I see others have already mentioned it, but I also like the skewed perspective. I shot a LOT with my wide angle in London and I rather like leaving them skewed - not just because it's a pain to fix in post, but because I like the view it gives.

I like this because it is very unlike anything I ever take. Like most other commentors, I like the skewed perspective from this view, and wouldn't change it. The people (and bird) add another element of interest to the photo. Very nice.

i like the perspective on this and the feeling that the building is sticking it's chest out so proudly. Nice mixture of street and architecture, well done.

I am such a fan of scale and perspective in scenes like this. Larger than life landscapes or architecture. I love the feeling that you are seeing an ordinary moment -- but in such a striking place. The old building is so photogenic. It is beautiful as a black and white photograph.

I like the perspective, it communicates a feeling of massiveness. The sky has very few features and the big emptiness competes for the eye's attention.

Love the sharpness of this picture and the people add a wonderful sense of scale. Maybe some dodge and burn (mostly dodge) in the sky would add some interest there.

My eye is immediately drawn the high contrast area by the columns, then to the people in dark color clothing. Then I follow the lighter areas all around the photo. This is what makes a photo engaging for me. I personally like the perspective the way it is, it throws things off balance just a tad.
