EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of St Paul's Cathedral in all its glory. Standing tall and proud, the iconic cathedral dominates the skyline of London's City district. The view along Cannon Street perfectly frames this architectural masterpiece, drawing our eyes towards its grandeur. In front of the cathedral, we see the City information centre, a unique circular building that adds an interesting contrast to the scene. This center served as a hub for visitors seeking knowledge about this historic area. Its presence reminds us of both past and present, where ancient tradition meets modern convenience. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable; it encapsulates not only the physical elements but also conveys a sense of timelessness and reverence. The juxtaposition between old and new is beautifully captured here – centuries-old architecture harmoniously coexisting with contemporary structures. As we gaze at this image, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time to witness bustling street scenes filled with people going about their daily lives amidst such awe-inspiring surroundings. It serves as a reminder that history is alive within these walls and streets. J R Uppington has masterfully preserved this moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate the magnificence of St Paul's Cathedral from afar while immersing ourselves in its rich heritage.
