As part of the London 2012 Festival - Boris closed off Piccadilly and the surrounding area yesterday for various circus acts to perform for the public. Culminating in a spectacular finale, dropping a ton and half of feathers over Eros. I don't think I'll ever see anything like that again, it was truly amazing to be part of.
I took my Nikon and M9, with a Zeiss 35/2 and my Nocti/0.95. Here's a few of my Leica shots of the massive feather fun that ensued at the end of the night.
p.s. Bumped in to a fella there with an M3 - hope you got some good shots)
There were high-wires rigged right across Piccadilly Circus, on which the performers travelled in costume to drop their payload. They also had feather 'canons' !

The performers enjoyed mingling with the appreciative crowd after. Everyone was buzzing!
