      Of course most of those 90,000 per day are the same 90,000 as yesterday.

      This pic needs to be seen by more people, so...

      This is an amazing structure; when I first saw it in a coffee table book on England I couldn't believe my eyes! Lovely picture.

      You chose a perfect angle.
      Seen shots of this sculpture before, but mostly don't look so impressive

      I really like this photo and especially the fact that you introduced a person within the composition as gives a sense of scale. Shame though that it is a bit noisy.
