This gets my vote for front-room of the year. I would have to do a little spring cleaning mind you, and add some soft furnishings and teh like of course.
This is the impressive entrance Hall to teh Natural History Museum in London. It is an odd mix of styles. Heavily Romanesque Revival, but with modern materials and structures such as terracotta and those striking steel ribs to the roof. Everything here is decorated, predictably, with natural imagery

Amazing shot Dave! Your composition, colour
and light is wonderful, and for some reason,
I'm especially drawn to the figures in the
lower left corner.
I saw this fantastic image in *Simply Perfect*
Thank you for sharing!
