Essence of London by Nicolas Barison

Piccadilly Circus is a road junction and public space of London’s West End in the City of Westminster. It was built in 1819 to connect Regent Street with Piccadilly. In this context, a circus, from the Latin word meaning “circle”, is a round open space at a street junction. Piccadilly now links directly to the theatres on Shaftesbury Avenue, as well as the Haymarket, Coventry Street (onwards to Leicester Square) and Glasshouse Street. The Circus is close to major shopping and entertainment areas in the West End. Its status as a major traffic junction has made Piccadilly Circus a busy meeting place and a tourist attraction in its own right. The Circus is particularly known for its video display and neon signs mounted on the corner building on the northern side, as well as the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain and statue, which is popularly, though mistakenly, believed to be of Eros. It is surrounded by several notable buildings, including the London Pavilion and Criterion Theatre. Directly underneath the plaza is Piccadilly Circus Underground station, part of the London Underground system.

Hunted by Marsel van Oosten

Sea ice loss from human-caused climate warming is one of the biggest threats to polar bears. Polar bears rely on sea ice to hunt seals, breed and sometimes den. We could see dramatic declines in polar bear numbers by mid-century if we do not greatly reduce the use of fossil fuels for our energy needs, and instead shift to renewables. But it’s not just global warming that threatens the polar bear. It’s also commercial hunting. This aspect is never discussed by the big NGO’s because it’s a highly sensitive subject. If you want to learn more about this, read the book ‘Polar Bears & Humans’ by Ole J Liodden, or ‘Polar Bears on the Edge’ by Morten Jørgensen. Marsel | squiver.com

Life is not a straight path, but one thing that I like in Iceland is that it seems to be! Every construction I see in Iceland seems to have no knowledge of a compass as everything was made in straight lines, from houses to chairs. And I love it, I just do, and I don’t know why, but even this beautiful Vestrahorn Mountain seem to have absorbed this culture! Love your planet, enjoy it as it can give you everything you need

Among the giant feathers of Tenerife. This exotic plant is called tajinaste. In spring time it blooms with incredible red colors, but in early March they look like giant feathers. Just after my trip to Madeira island I went exploring it’s neighbor Tenerife. Tenerife is not only famous for its resorts, but has wonderful volcanic landscapes and stunning night skies. I went hiking on volcanic fields to get some panoramic images like this. Felt like Alice in wonderland for a minute 🐛😁
