Hanson Goes to London! Part III
By Taylor Hanson
Bikes, ducks, smart cars, scones, and oh yeah some pictures
of people, too. There's quite a few selections
that are truly for the wanderer in this last
installment of images from our June London trip. One of my favorite pastimes during our trip was to wander through Hyde Park at odd hours (only partly due to the jet lag). During these trips I crossed paths with a wild fox
strolling through the park pathway -- no picture to prove that, but a couple times
I caught a shadowy figure feeding the ducks during the twilight hours (like
something straight out of Mary Poppins), and did have the camera ready. (And, no, I was
not drunk or otherwise).
Another one of my favorite subjects is good food, so you'll catch a few pics of quintessential British foods like scones and clotted cream and finger sandwiches ... oh so good. Looking back at this set of pics feels like a nice send off and I look forward to the next London visit, which will come fairly soon. We'll be back to the island in August for the famed V festival, which is sure to produce some great pics.
Thinking about festivals is also a great cue for me to stop the chatter and let you grab a look at my 10th PAPERMAG blog, and also a nice segue to by next blog, which you should look out for in the coming days. It's all about our day in Holland at the PinkPop festival back in June.

I really enjoyed looking through these photos. I felt a solemn sort of emotion through most of them. I also felt some humor! Very nice. There's a very good eye behind this camera. I hope to see some similar to these in a gallery one day.

I was going to go to the V Festival but I figured why go to something where you only play a few songs when I can see you guys when you're on tour!!!! I've loved you since I was a little girl and words can not express how excited I am to finally see you!! Soo glad you're coming back to London. You are all beyond talented :) And gorgeous photos!

Taylor, you are the untouchable Estela of my life. My undying, unrequited love for you. I'm not a stalker, but I would totally shoot Ronald Regan for you, especially now that he's already dead and there's nothing they can really do to me. You've been married 9 years and I'm still mourning you as an option.

I love looking at these photos from all of your adventures! It's cool how you can capture an emotion in rather mundane subjects. You always have such an eclectic collection of images that truly tell a story. Love it! Can't wait to see you dudes in NYC this fall. XOXO- Carrie C from NYC.

Hi, I caught the gig at V Chelmsford, noticed your Leica when you came on stage (Leica user here too) so I wondered if you posted your photos on the net and found this. Nice work, and great gig!
