Ghost Forest



There is currently a large outdoor art installation in Trafalgar Square by the British artist Angela Palmer called "Ghost Forest." The exhibition, which consists of a number of tree stumps from an African rainforest, is meant to draw attention to the risk that these habitats face. The installation, which was meant to coincide with the run-up to the United Nations Climate Change Conference, in Copenhagen December 7th to 18th. What follows are a few of my pictures from Trafalgar Square...













As an aside, this entry marks my first foray into photo stitching. The panoramic shot featured at the top of this entry is actually a series of six separate photos I took whilst standing atop the stairs in front of the National Gallery. I stitched the distinct photos together to generate a nearly 180 degree display.
