Being a Londoner who spends quite a bit of time in central London I've seen the Household Cavalry a few times. Not taken many pictures though. A few days ago I was walking by the Mall and saw the Life Guards coming along. I had my small camera with me so took a couple of pictures. I think this is what is called the Short Guard. The Long Guard is when the Queen is in London and consists of 15 soldiers. The Short Guard is for when the Queen isn't in London and consists of of 12 soldiers. It doesn't look like 15 in the picture.
This blog started as a record of travels around London. As I've changed so the blog has changed. It still has photos from my travels but I have started posting photos from my work as a photographer. They are still taken on my Canon cameras and I still don't use flash on the underground - it's dangerous blinding passengers and drivers.
