Dear friends, I'm really sorry about that I'm being a bit M.I.A. recently. I've been completely tied up with my work and too busy to keep up some of my "leisure" stuffs, so I seriously apologies for not blogging and commenting enough... and hope all of you have been more than OK and thank you for everyone's understanding. I will try my best to catch up with you gradually.
Meanwhile, I want to tell folks who are around London a fantastic exhibition - London though a Lens. If you love photography and the city, it will be a perfect day out! London though a Lens has gathered all sorts of rare and hard-to-get archives taken in London from Getty Images, from anonymous Londoners to famous names behind the cameras, such as the Beatles, the Kray brothers, Thurston Hopkins, Terry Fincher and Terry O’Neill; from private collections to commercial photography, and etc.
Location: Getty Images Gallery, 46 Eastcastle Street
London, W1W 8DX
Time: 21 August 2008 - 27th September 2008
Oh, if you cannot make it, but are still very much interested it, you can get the book from Amazon - London though a Lens (Time Out Guides) (Paperback)
Here are some samples :)

Those pics are wonderful! I love the hoop skirts being piled onto their carriage! Even though their clothes were larger and lots of layers, they seemed to wear less because of money and practicality. We probably take as much as they do, but in cotton jersey!

the photos are amazing, especially the last one with the crowd. wow.
love xxxxxxxxxxx
I love the pictures and I LOVE LOVE LOVE London!

Oh no! I went to London a couple of weeks ago, and didn't know about this fantastic exhibition! I would have loved to go, although my days there were so busy. What a pity...I guess I'll have to go back and check it out :). A good reason to go back to beautiful London.
