From my trip to England in March. Still lots of unprocessed images and views of places I haven't presented on social media. I did showcase a view of the Nelson column and the lion statues in an earlier photo I posted on Facebook. This view shows most of the east end of the square showing one of the two fountains.

I positioned the sun right above the column when composing the photo in camera.
