Lumiere London : Interesting idea, we want more

Introduction

The Lumiere London was a really interesting evening over this weekend. For a family like most from london suburbia, only draw to the center of town as needs call, this was a great opportunity to get everyone into town and around the the west end. People will often wonder the meaning behind these events. But apart from looking up and at the illuminations, some of which left you bewildered at the artists mind, the wider social effect to admire the number of people in town and the impact of business from high end restaurants to the pizza slice seller were amazing. It would have provided a welcome boost from the London economy.

Walking around the frozen capital suffering from the recent chill with temperatures failing to get above level and the tail end of the evening dampened slightly with rain. Here are some of my pictures from the event.

As a final word well done London - good event, well organised and despite the freezing temperatures Londoners all supported it well. We need something like this every 3 months. Keep it going.
