An iron rooster sits up high, looks out far 
London, April 2013

Every time I travel to London, I follow an old tradition of mine by strolling down the sleeping city streets in the morning. At such early hours of the day London grants new discoveries. This time, quite unexpectedly, I found a fantastic rooster perched on a spire of an old red brick building. I was truly enchanted and delighted by such a meeting. 

Long ago, an iron master made this rooster weather vane and placed it high on the roof of the London building, gifting it to the world. Beauty is all around us, in the smallest of details, we only have to look closely to see the wonders of the world.
