The rest of the Canary Wharf photos. I love that place! So many photos!

About a month ago, I went to Canary Wharf to shoot but forgot the pics on the disk, and it is only now that I've found them.

The latest work by legendary artist Banksy.
This time, he didn't make the usual mural; instead, it's a statue set on a monolith.
Banksy's work on Waterloo Place in London acts as a cold shower for all of us who sometimes get lulled into myths about our own national greatness. The figure proudly carrying the flag, yet allowing it to cover her face, becomes a perfect metaphor for the moment when symbols cease to be landmarks and become blindness. At that moment, we no longer see where we stand or where we are going.
The flag falling over our heads is not a celebration of identity, but a warning. It speaks to how nationalism, when it turns into mythomania, can separate us from reality — from real people, real problems and the real needs of the community. In this blindness, it is easy to step into the abyss, into a spiral of misery, into conflicts that do no one any good. A blindness that prevents us from knowing ourselves.
This work reminds us that the greatness of a nation does not lie in fantasies about the past, but in the ability for all — majority, minority and neighbours — to live in peace, dignity and contentment. Only when we lift the curtain can we see where we are and what we need to do to be better.
Therefore, the author, whoever he is 😁, should be given credit for the unique clarity with which he conveys messages of humanity and goodwill. His art does not shout, but hits straight to the heart — and forces us to look at ourselves without illusions.
Although the statue was placed there overnight, I find it hard to believe it was not done in agreement with the local authorities; even Banksy could not have done it a few steps from St. James's Palace without the authorities nodding.

Hey, I can do street photography after all! :)

Leeds gave me a full architectural tasting menu in one afternoon — Victorian fantasies, industrial relics, glass canyons, and the occasional DHL van photobomb just to keep me humble. I wandered from Moorish Revival drama at St. Paul’s House to the stubborn little Engine House that once powered half the neighbourhood, now sitting in a plaza of shiny new offices like a time‑traveller who missed the memo.

Wellington Place turned out to be a whole mood: clean lines, leaning façades, perspective tricks, and those colourful ‘Paper Planes’ drifting overhead — not actual aircraft, just a playful nod to the engineering past buried under all that polished stone and glass. Even the round‑and‑pointy street corners joined in, proving Leeds will happily mix eras, shapes, and attitudes without asking anyone’s permission.

And somewhere along the way, I realised my photography has a name now — I call it Geometry. Angles, contrasts, alignments, the quiet logic of shapes talking to each other. Leeds is chaotic enough to make that game interesting.

The Yorkshire sky stayed its usual shade of soft grey disappointment, but honestly? It works. The clouds turn the whole city into a giant softbox, flattening the glare and letting the architecture do the talking. Not bad for a business trip — I came for meetings, and left with half a visual love letter to a city I’m still getting to know.

Making this photo was doubly enjoyable! This beautiful building in front of me, and someone in the Royal College of Music two metres behind my back, playing piano really skilfully! I was in no rush to leave this place!
