As I said last week, we've spent so long drinking in the inebriating magic of other towns and cities across the world, that it took us a while to realise the beauty of our own back yard. London is a paradise, one in this instance full of bleeding zombies, abusive TV sets, faeces stained dancefloors and lonely men doing stunt cocaine off of Drake CDs.
Predictably, having waited all this time means that we've accumulated quite a vast collection of photographs of London at its most photogenic. So vast in fact, we couldn't fit them all in one gallery – so here's part two.
There might be a third part, but I can't promise anything. It's probably best not to overdo it.
Does your town or city qualify for paradise status? Feel free to send your pitches to ukphotoblog@vice.com. We won't bite.
