    Your post beautifully encapsulates the nostalgia that accompanies old photographs. As a London resident, I often find myself reflecting on the transformations our city has undergone since the mid-90s. It’s remarkable how places can evoke memories and emotions, leading us to ponder their past while appreciating their present.

    Here are a few thoughts about some iconic locations that might resonate with your photos:

    • Covent Garden: Once primarily known for its market, Covent Garden has become a lively destination filled with shops and street performances. You might recall the charming cobbled streets and the buzz of tourists and locals alike.

    What I find truly captivating is that while some landmarks remain unchanged, the energy and the people surrounding them are what keep
