Calling Big Ben | London 2024 | Snugug Photography

The image shows a class red London telephone booth on a city street. The booth is brightly lit and has a sign above it that reads "TELEPHONE". The booth is slightly angled towards the viewer, so the right side of the booth is more prominent. The front window of the booth has been defaced with graffiti. There is a small gold crown on the top of the booth. In the background, there are pedestrians walking along the street. The buildings on either side of the street are tall and gray. The sky is cloudy and gray. Big Ben is out of focus in the background. — Calling Big Ben

So much of my trip to London was grey (London?! Grey?! In December?! Sam! We don't believe you!) that the burst of color from these iconic telephone booths are truly a breath of fresh air across this album. Many of the booths aren't even operational anymore! They're being preserved in place just because of how iconic they are.

This is yet another example of me treating an inanimate object like the subject of a portrait.
