London Sky View-Quiz

Familiar from ground level, but do you recognize these London landmarks from above?


My score 7/10
Not a bad score when you consider I’ve only seen these places through pouring rain. :cool:


London landmarks from above: how many do you recognise? - Telegraph

I thought you could usually see most landmarks in the pouring rain from the streets, too?

True, but crowds of tourists carrying umbrellas does obstruct one’s view. http://www.4smileys.com/smileys/seas...rainsmiley.gif Besides as a southern Californian I don’t get a lot of “umbrella practice” I mean the strategic timing needed to close one’s umbrella early enough to avoid bad luck, but late enough not to get wet in the rain, is rather tricky. :cool:

Unfortunately nowadays when the rain stops it is no better as the umbrellas are replaced by hundreds of ipads and tablets that are being used to take photos rather that a proper ( and less obstructive ) camera !!

P.S. 9/10 on the views ... can never work out which Tate which !
