Red Boxes by andycoleborn

Red Boxes

We went, well, let's say we planned on going to the theatre this evening.. Sangeeta has a contact that can occasionally get free tickets (all very hush hush)..

Unfortunately, once we got to the ticket office we found out we couldn't get tickets for the show so instead headed over to China Town for something to eat...

So not a completely wasted evening...
Great shot!

I hope these red telephone booths never go out of fashion. They're an icon! I love how they're together in a row and the color just pops!

A night in China Town is never wasted. Nice run of boxes.

When we were in London last weekend I thought that there were many more of the old style red phone boxes than before, they all look great, so iconic and much nicer than the "modern" ones.

So glad they are still about despite the advent of the mobile phone... nice shot, shame about the theatre. :)

Oh, Andy, what a MARVELOUS city you live in! Ken and I spent the day on one of the tour busses and probably passed you by at some point. We arrived yesterday afternoon and spent a full day here, loving every minute! Had we been around longer, we'd have contacted you and your circle. We plan to be back someday soon...it's been exceptional! And oh yes, I got my pictures of your wonderful phone booths, too! Thought of you and Sangeeta often today! Hugs!

Aren't they so photogenic! The authority concerned seems to be very choosy in where it leaves the old style boxes, I'm glad to say that we were deemed worthy in many of our small Lake District villages.
