Amongst the throngs of people snapping away at Big Ben across the Thames, were these two guys, in solemn debate and enjoying a cigarette. I don't smoke but, if I was so inclined, this kind of scene would sell me a bunch more tobacco than glamorized and glossy adverts. Relaxation. Addiction too, but relaxation nonetheless... With our heads submerged in cell-phones and tablets, especially in a tourist hub like London - everybody is all to keen to rush to the shops, hit the must-see spots with your camera glued to your eye, frantically check that email, rush, rush, rush - it's nice to see a little unscripted relaxation amongst the madness.
