An Eye on Dali's clock
Along the Southbank of the Thames in London, across the bridge from Westminster, is the London Eye, a giant Ferris Wheel that has quickly become a London landmark. Next to the Eye is County Hall, which is currently exhibiting The Dali Universe featuring the works of the famous artist Dali and other surrealists.
Giant Dali statues line the Thames in front of County Hall. I was drawn to this one of the melting clock. I like the way the Eye looms over the statue. I just wish I'd turned on my fill flash to brighten up the face of the statue more.

York Minster Chapter House ceiling
This is another one of my all-time favorite photos that I've taken. This is looking straight up at the ceiling of the Chapter House in York Minster, which is a cathedral in York, England. We visited in 2003.
