This precious gem collection isn’t mine (unfortunatley) but is housed at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. I love the way the stones have been arranged in colour order and seem to be located in a dark secret place, which they kind of are as you’re not allowed to take pictures but I was being a bit sneaky (and before you ask, yes I got told off and had to put my camera away afterwards)

Weekly Photo Challenge: The Sign Says
Aside
So, I thought I’d have a go at the weekly photo challenge on WordPress this week. This is a photo I took when walking around London, and I thought it was a cheeky alteration to the ‘stop’ sign, so took a quick snap

I also found this Banky picture on my wonderings which is also very apt, and I love Banksy artwork, so I had to include it

This makes me think of those typical landscape pictures that you get on souvenir postcards. Only problem with mine is that it’s slightly wonky! I still like it, although maybe I’ll have another go when I next go down and see if I can do better.

This is a courtyard at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. The colour of the stone has a really nice pale colour, which makes the photo look almost black and white

Orbit tower, London

Also known as the ArcelorMittal Orbit, which is in Stratford, London (reminds me of a huge waterslide). I was lucky enough to visit the Olympic park last year and take a few pictures. I really like the view of this and how the red stands againt the bright blue sky
