Nothing to do with gardening: Obama in front of No. 10 Downing Street

I first spotted this image plastered on a platform at London's Paddington station. It turns out that the ad (?) is all over London's Underground. The above is from today's Metro. No tagline. No product being advertised. Just a tantalizing image of Obama in front of No. 10 Downing Street, the residence of the British Prime Minister.

Some especially fragrant English roses


Roses in Hyde Park in London. I've been on hiatus of sorts from the BK yard due to day job, which has kept me busy (and the weeds growing happily) and brought me over the pond. This was taken after a fashion show in the Crystal Palace in the park.
