Dont Jump...

I wasn't sure what i was seeing at first. there were at least two buildings that appeared to have people on them.
I realise now its just "art" but they were causing quite a stir.

Re: Dont Jump...

That's cool - did they just pop up overnight or something?

Re: Dont Jump...

Thanks for the link. I was at the Crosby Beach for his work "Another Place" on Friday. I haven't had time to process the photos yet though
What I like about this photo is the contrast in colours between the blue/purple haze on the far building and the nice orange/cream of the foreground. Makes for a interesting view.
I guess there's not much you can do about a flat grey sky like that.

Re: Dont Jump...

I saw the one on Freemasons Hall while we were shopping just off Covent Garden a couple of weeks ago. I was walking down the road and looked up and there it was! It was only then I remembered seeing the press stuff about them.
