Michelle at Weekly Photo Challenge gave us the theme of “scale” for this Friday. I went with a statue standing in front of the Buckingham Palace in London.
Let’s see what other participants have entered for Scale.
Do you have a direct line to the goddess of skies? They can’t be accidental – always magnificent and moody. And I suspect you ARE the goddess of photographic clarity. That subtle patch of green is another aspect of scale.
Nice photo! I remember this statue. I was there in May 2003.

Did you like the Buckingham Palace?

Yes, but we were able to take photos outside the palace only because it was closed that day. I like Windsor Castle.
