A Student's London (Ongoing)

JonathanGRR · #1 Posted **Mar 22, 2015, 10:59 PM**

I moved from Grand Rapids, Michigan to London in September of last year in order to start my undergraduate degree at SOAS, University of London. I have been taking pictures since I have gotten here, but I haven't posted any as of yet...so hopefully this thread will be ongoing! I'm afraid that my camera is not that great (saving up for a better one!), but here are the pictures regardless:

Nice tour! You've got a great eye for detail, and the enjoyment you take from the archtecture really shows through - look forward to seeing your next installment.

Thanks for the comments! I really enjoy taking photos of the old architectural details, so I will try to post more of that if that is what people enjoy.
