WATERLOO SUNSET
May 2020 and London is in the midst of full lockdown. All-but-essential businesses are closed and travel is permitted only for essential reasons. Meanwhile, over in Los Angeles, troubadour and non-binary star Dorian Wood streams an impromptu version of the classic paean Waterloo Sunset.
Moved by this heart-wrenching take, I run out and grab images of the deserted Waterloo and South Bank area.
It’s London as never seen before - moribund but gleaming.
Peaceful, yet suggestive of the troubling times to come.
