You only have to scroll through Instagram or fight through forests of selfie-sticks to know that London is filled with snapable landmarks. But when you live and work among them they're easy to get used to (or avoid).

That's why photographer Yahav Draizin is on a mission to refresh our vision of London's stunning spots as more than just a designated tour group meeting point. 

Using his phone, Yahav matches images from popular culture and beyond to well-known places in London to show them in a new light. We bet you've never seen Free Willy emerging for air at City Hall before now, have you?

Although based in Tel Aviv, London is Yahav's favourite city and he regularly visits to find inspiration and boost his creativity. Take a look at his best shots taken for the series so far.
