Challenge 385: Clear the streets
A bit of a technical challenge this week.

I photographed this view of the London Stock Exchange a few years ago, but have never used it because there are so many people in the shot - as well as some irritating reflections in the glass.

Would you be able to clean the street up for me?

High res is here.

Post #2 for me and I could quite get to enjoy this Friday challenge malarkey (not had so much fun sine primary school). There is only one way to clear the streets of London from my memory of it.
PS Thanks for the constructive criticism Steve from last week’s post. I must say yours is the only book I have ever had were you get to interact with the author. Cheers!

Just a quick clean up for now, I'l try and add something more exciting to it in the week! It's amazing how doing something so tedious can feel rewarding at the end!

Re: Challenge 385: Clear the streets
Great works all. I'm only halfway through mine, sad as might seem.

Anna great work again and love the music. It just makes me sad. My Irish friends impacted and me.
Not only the dream, but I have €s in the bank. Ouch!

I think you have nailed that very well Artwell ! I'm not sure it is rewarding, I went for a walk in the sun , with camera, so it just stopped on my part
I do agree though.....

Excellent theme this week Anna and perfect opportunity. I had a similar idea but short of time. I used to sing that song in the days when I had a guitar. Love it. Who's the artist?

Thank you Soph and Trevor! It was Ralph McTell who sang 'Streets of London'. It was only in the last few years that I realised the significance of the lyrics. Even though this song was first brought out in the early 70s, I feel its just as relevant today, not only in London but for most of the world.
