Palace Evolution
The theme for this week’s Lens-artists Photo Challenge #178 is You Choose. The palace of Westminster, long seen as the mother of parliaments and an example of a well functioning parliament, but in recent years showing a decline of parliamentary sovereignty to a more and more authoritarian executive. Shot from the London Eye as a view from an observer from a distance.

Magnificent building …. but no longer the home of a functioning Government – but perhaps best not to get too political 🙂

I follow it from a distance being a political scientist and my wife is English.

I am glad you can follow it with all the twists and turns plus the nonsense that now occurs in our political enclaves’…. . maybe being at a distance is the best place to be 🙂

Best information is on Twitter: Brexit and border bill, etc. Chris Grey has a brilliant blog about Brexit, for starters to make sense of it all.

Wow. Great photo. Did you enhance the clouds. The sharpness and saturation of the entire photo is excellent.

The effect is caused by a polarization filter and the tinted glass of the London Eye cabin. With a polarization filter you enhance clouds easily. Thank you for your kind words! Glad to read you enjoy the photo.
