This valve cover is old and covered with various pollution debris, but has relatively clean, new yellow lines.

You know, I don't remember shooting this one in London.  It looks more like Belgium or Germany to me, but the position on the roll of 35mm film makes it impossible to be anything but in London.

London Scream

 

London Scream

Edvard Munch eat your heart out.  Now I know where he got the idea for the scream... he passed out drunk on a street in London, and the next day he painted the Scream without knowing the source of the inspiration.  Reportedly, these are UK fire hydrants for small hoses.
