Aug 2012: Hibiscus and Elephants

We have this amazing hibiscus plant at home, it keeps on flowering all around the year…amazing stuff.

And something i picked up at an antique shop…

 
Its an elephant fighting a crocodile…nice work.

July ‘12 views of London via my iphone

Here are some of the photographs of London that I took with the iPhone in July.

it looked nice against the clouds

Standing in front of the waitrose store looking at the Citigroup building

I think this was near Oxford Street, these regiments come and go…bit sad..

Construction of the JP Morgan building…looks like there are 3 fingers up there…

A tree highlighted against the sky…

A sunny morning in London…

At the local tube station, I couldn't figure out what that unit was…some kind of an electrical connector?

Windsor castle…

Very rude flowers, lol, these are actually weeds but somebody else said that they were proper trees..confusing. One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter but flowers?

At the Gun, they make some beautiful food

View of the O2 from the Gun

The ceiling of a restaurant at Heathrow when we had gone to drop off Sameer and Anika.

Flowers, sidewalks, long legs, cars in front of the regulator’s office.

UCL

Holding up the Olympics Torch.

heh, nice one.

Im never going to buy anything by this man, John L Esposito, his books are useless.

At my most favourite bookstore in the world, I saw this man, homeless by all angles, sitting there and reading books. Amazing.




A view of the UCL grounds, I have no idea what this is supposed to be

People leave stuff in front of the charity shop, but then others steal from it. You can also see the frikking uncultured barbarian like behaviour by the desi’s who spit paan juice on the pavement. BAH!

But looking at toys which are abandoned like this makes me sad, sighs, they are usually greeted with such joy, and then the joy just drops off..

Shadows off a tree at work.

At a Moroccan restaurant. I just hope there isnt an actual fire otherwise we will be in trouble.

People visiting London in their little boats.

Went looking for Sangeeta’s at the Canary Wharf Waterstone’s…got distracted by other books

 
they are selling perfumes at work, are we stinky?

June 12: I am pregnant and I have a badge to prove it

A lovely flower pot…

lol, I nicked this badge off my heavily pregnant secretary At least 6 months, wont you say?

Celebrating Jubilee day in the green…

A lovely tiger lily..

A lonely skyscraper…

Bollards in a P shape, lol

Beautiful purple flowers..

Obama will be squirming…

Yes, please do, plump it up…

Gosh, she looks delicious…

I didn't know that old man Bolivar lived here….!

Very colourful clock…

Will this disgusting sight produce tricycles?

Bubble trails

Flowery flags…

That is so sad….

I always take a photo of the elephant at the Waterloo station. Its brilliant…

Boris Bikes….

Rumble stripes…strips…dirty anyway…

Yeah! that!

MSIE??? Microsoft Internet Explorer? I think this is very dodgy…

No thank you, I am going to skip this…

lol, happy Jubilee, Mam…

Crucifixes. Pretty eye-catching, eh?

The thin blue line

Not all the mugs are on here…mug shot?

That’s a pretty striking colour…

No, its not cars gone wild, but the annual Canary Wharf Car Show. You should have seen how grown men go like kids with these cars…

heh, brilliant…

Well, I suppose it had to happen, the board announcing the graffiti area which is authorised is graffitied…How can you authorise Graffiti? It sort of is imbecilic, no?

Now no idea what this is now…

A feather in my cap, no, on the sidewalk…pigeon..

How did you manage to get the car in there?

That is good to know that the station roof works..

Stairs…

this is the bridge in canary wharf…reminds me of the bridge too far bridge in Netherlands..

And another photo of 1 Canada Square…

Flower beds in Canary Wharf….

Street cleaners

Harrods…

And another view…

As usual, stuff that you find on the sidewalks..

Why would anybody drop a bloody loo on the pavement? Somewhere, there is a butt which is missing a seat…

Silly cow..

Now we are talking, blue rose, for a blue moon?

hate it, hate it, hate it.

Roof of this amazing building…

At the Ayn Rand institute lecture



Another view of the painted ceiling…mmmm, very nice…

Who is it indeed…

A lovely building on London Wall, i think this is the Deutsche Bank Building…

Another use of filters on instagram…

My first trip on the bike….you can see Diya out in front, I managed to blow the tire…sighs, so had to walk down 1km to the bike shop and get it fixed…

I took a photograph while cycling..Not recommended…

mmmmm, this was very delicious…

A beautiful park…

A door near our house…

somebody has too much time, arrangement of cans…its supposed to look like an elephant..

Another view of 1CS….

And another one…gosh..i do like it….

Why did I take this photo again?

You have got to be kidding me….

Ouch, that is painful….where are you going to clamp the offender?

I am sure there is a good reason behind this wrapping of foil around these branches… but it escapes me…

 

She is cool…
