Sunset in South Norwood - London

A beautiful sunset seen from my bedroom window in South Norwood, London.

How many of us has actually watched a sunset? We all live incredibly busy lives and at times seem to miss out the true beauty that surrounds us.

As I watched the sunset last night, I was amazed at the beauty of the colours change before me, as the day drew to a close.

Fellow bloggers have shot some magnificent pictures of the sun setting where they live.

Check out Scottsdale daily photo and Random photo's blog, I think you will agree you will see some stunning photo's.

Enjoy your day and to my American readers and friends - Happy 4th July!

London - South Bank at Sundown

The South Bank is the area in London on the southern bank of the River Thames near Waterloo station that houses a number of important cultural buildings/institutions. The South Bank stretches 2 square miles (5 square kilometres) along the shores of the River Thames. It was the site of the 1951 Festival of Britain, which proposed the name for this post-war urban regeneration project; the ancient name of the area is Lambeth Marsh and Lower Marsh. Presently it is London's fastest-growing section,[citation needed] a locale of modern cultural centre with numerous theatre,gallery, and concert halls. The legacy of the Festival is the Royal Festival Hall, now part of Southbank Centre arts complex.
