I love the dynamics of this photo, with the juxtaposition of old and new, light vs dark, bright vs sombre. The sky was so lovely this day. Sojourn into Soho before shops reopened. June 13th. . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #goingdowntown #westend #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #londonbuildings #londonarchitecture #backstreetsoflondon #beautifulsky #beautifulclouds #photographiccomposition #headinghome #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Soho, London UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CByqipRnO85/?igshid=1x1swhzl5zuqs

Another cool frontage. Sweatbox, Soho. Google says it's a gay sauna. Heading back towards Oxford St and nearly the end of this sojourn. . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #londonbuildings #backstreetsoflondon #storefronts #londonsauna #sweatbox #coolgraphics #windowdesign #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at SweatBox Soho) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBylj4MnhBm/?igshid=1qa6qtzjurkh7

The glorious and iconic Liberty store, London. Unfathomable that the West End is so empty. Flaneuring it June 13th, before shops reopen. . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #londonbuildings #londonarchitecture #londonlandmark #regentstreet #libertystore #libertylondon #tudorrevival #mocktudor #elizabethanstyle #retailstore #storefront #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Liberty London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBxpzKMHoox/?igshid=1x3eu90gznyw5

Good ol' shadow pic. Nearing the end of my Saturday Sojourn into Soho June 13th, weekend before lockdown easement allowing retail shops to open. . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #goingdowntown #westend #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #mainstreetsoflondon #shopsreopening #regentstreet #pavement #shadowselfie #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Regent Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBxkAn4HX5A/?igshid=1gdiv8m3nv1le

Landscape vs portrait. Should the focus be on the impressive architecture or on the wonderful sky? Often hard to chose, so here you get both options! Regent Street, London and the west boundary of Soho. I mainly wanted to see Libertys, which will be coming up, and then pretty darn near done with my Sat Sojourn in Soho! . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #goingdowntown #westend #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #londonbuildings #londonarchitecture #mainstreetsoflondon #retailstores #storefronts #reopening #regentstreet #collonade #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Regent Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvoQ63nTkH/?igshid=yb6w37zl0up4

Something old something new. Old London meets new, where bikes are becoming more and more popular for city travel, and the old red phone boxes are just icons from the past. Making my way to Regents St... Sat. June 13th, weekend before nonessential shops reopened. . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #goingdowntown #westend #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #backstreetsoflondon #oldphoneboxes #londonphoneboxes #redphoneboxes #bicycle #bicyclesoflondon #londonbicycle #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Soho, London UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvnx4gHDmZ/?igshid=lwqqxxtpf29f

3 similar perspectives, different streets. Making my way towards Liberty's and Regent St. Not too many left you'll be glad to know! Made my way to Carnaby Street on my West End/Soho sojourn Saturday 13th June. Totally dead. Some people in shops getting ready for reopening the following Monday. . . . . #outandabout #flaneuringit #flaneur #goingdowntown #westend #londonswestend #soho #soholondon #londonstreets #londonbuildings #londonarchitecture #backstreetsoflondon #oldlondon #beautifulsky #beautifulclouds #cityscapes #watchthesky #keeplooking #keeplookingup #afternoonstroll #beautifulday #endoflockdown #covid2020 (at Soho, London UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvmRpZHi_P/?igshid=18j8vq8ciyplm

A couple more cute buildings in Carnaby. Made my way to Carnaby Street on my West End/Soho sojourn Saturday 13th June. Totally dead.
