Apple Facade, Regent Street, London
When I did a Flickr search for “Regent Street London”, the majority of the photos which appears were of the Apple Store in Regent Street which has taken over the former Liberty department store. Well, we do live in multi national world.
I think that the judges are facing a difficult task as I’m just not sure what constitutes “what is great about Britain” beyond the run of the mill, London buses, stately homes etc. Although I’m Scottish, I also think of myself as British, yet I’m not sure if the judges would perceive a Scottish photo as being very British.
