Psst.. you know, they are not allowed to talk or move around freely. When someone would ask for photos to be taken, they would just gently nod their head and not speak a single word. However this is the conversation that we had with one (not the one in the photo...)
Me: Can we have a photo with you?
Guardsman : Sure, no prob!
After,
Me: Thanks!
Guardsman : Cool! See you!
A rather cool guardsman compared to the rest and not so uptight.. hehe
The amount of people around the front of Buckingham Palace was amazing. They were all gathered around for the changing of the guards. This is a really elaborate ceremony where one team takes over the duty from the other one and was done everyday around 11am during summer. This spot was recommended by our bicycle tour guide, Jim from London Bicycle Tour. It was included in the London Pass that we purchased and was one of the few nicest offers.
We came back again to the palace for a photo and met a Spanish family. After some short and simple conversation in Spanish (ahem.. not that bad, they understood me! ^.^) we took a photo of them and they returned the favour.
An experimental shot inspired by a similar shot seen elsewhere. Can you see the palace?
