Long Live Southbank


Last night we walked down London's Southbank and stopped to take a few shots of the skateboarders in action. 

The existence of the undercroft skatepark is currently under threat as the Southbank Centre above are planning a major refurbishment of the area.  Understandably, this plan is very unpopular with the community and 'Long Live Southbank' signs can be found all around the graffiti-filled walls of this space, as well as on the undersides of the skateboards of everyone we saw.  A huge petition to keep the skatepark open is currently underway and you can read more about it here.

In the meantime, however, I hope you enjoy my photos of this vibrant and dynamic space.
