Piccadilly Circus, Empty — London

Piccadilly Circus with nobody in it: the Underground sign and two ornate lamps over the subway entrance, the curved screens lit with car and phone adverts, the statue of Eros on its fountain, tower cranes against a sky of pink and violet cloud and empty pavements. — Piccadilly Circus, Empty

Try getting this at any other hour.

Piccadilly Circus with no one in it, which does not happen often and never for long. The screens run whether anyone is watching, the sky did the pink and violet on its own, and the two lamps over the subway entrance are the only warm light in the frame. Cranes in the corner because London is always building something.
