20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Winter Sunset, Victoria & Albert Museum, London

After an exhilarating day spent browsing the V&A Museum, I came out to witness this wonderful February sunset. I traveled with a friend to see London as a tourist in 2020 after a 25-year absence. We returned to the States and the Covid-19 lockdown started. We'd heard about 7 cases in the UK, who had all been moved to a hospital in London. We were nervous but also blasé - little did we know! I'd forgotten how busy London was, but also how hospitable and friendly people are toward tourists. And the helpers stationed inside the Tube to help direct you to your proper track! I miss London, can't wait to go back.
