It's like a time warp - there is even a deserted pub and church. They told me not to take photos but what the heck
That is very cool, Saou!

I lived in London for six months a long time ago. Did an internship. On my days off I use to take the underground to different neighborhoods and spend the day. One day, I can't remember where I went, but I was on my way home and waiting for the train. I was all alone in the station and I thought, 'that tunnel and tracks would make a cool picture', so I snapped one. Then I saw the sign that said no photography. It was months after I got home that I finally got that role of film developed...I was terrified I would be caught taking an illegal photo.
It is still one of my favorite pictures.
