  2. Iron Bones

    I nearly walked straight past it. You’re on the South Bank, dodging cyclists, and there’s this railway bridge overhead that most people treat as a ceiling to hurry under. But look up and the underside of Blackfriars Railway Bridge is a riot of riveted iron girders fanning out like the ribs of some enormous mechanical whale. I switched to black and white because the colour version was fighting the composition; stripping it back let the geometry do the talking.

  4. “Please mind the gap between the train and the platform” - seriously, even here where the platform is completely straight, in level with the train and there's a gap of like 2 cm? Shouldn't these announcements be a bit more targeted?
    Or was this station reconstructed without updating the announcement?
