Rain = puddles
Puddles = reflections

This one is just off London Wall and its the choice for the day because of the London City Bollards

In case you have forgotten or you weren't subscribed when I explained this before the bollards are the shape they are because:

After the defeat of the French at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, the British started to strip the French boats and reuse anything of value. When it came to the cannons however, it was found that they were too large to be retrofitted onto British ships. Determined to find a way to flaunt their victory over the French, the British decided instead to use them as street bollards throughout the East End of London.

This idea proved so popular that after the original cannons had all been used, replicas were made and these started to adorn more and more London streets. They continue to be made today, with their distinctive shape being an iconic feature of London's streets.
