I was intending to do a guided walk today, but the weather put me off - heavy rain! So I decided it was a museum day! I wanted to visit the Museum of London as they were having an Exhibition of London Street Photography. I also thought it would be good to learn more about the origins of London. Entry is free (they encourage a small donation). Obviously, no photographs are allowed of the Exhibition of London Street Photography, but it is well worth a visit. It is drawn from the museum's collection of street photography from the nineteenth century to the present, detailing the changing nature of life in London and the shifting role of photography in public places.
Below are some of the items which caught my eye!
