Colours on the Southbank, London

Colours on the Southbank in London:

"Poured Lines" by Ian Davenport under a bridge in Southwark Street

Coloured Lights slowly changing, under a bridge in Southwark Street,

On the promenade outside the Royal Festival Hall and the Queen Elizabeth Hall, a sandpit has been created with strips of coloured sand:

Orange

Green

Inevitably some sand strays onto another strip:

A patch of yellow sand has strayed onto the blue sand

Some blue sand has crossed over onto the red sand,
creating a purple effect.

Even the rocks are coloured

Shell Centre walkway, Southbank, London

This walkway from Waterloo Station through the Shell Centre to the Southbank has been closed for several years.

Next to the walkway is a sculpture "Torsion Fountain" (also known as The Shell Fountain) by Franta Belsky.

In July 2011 Shell announced that a joint venture of Canary Wharf Group and Qatari Diar had bought a 999 year lease on the Shell Centre for £300m and would redevelop the site, subject to planning permission. The tower is to be retained but the rest of the site would be replaced by a new scheme of offices, shops and restaurants.
