London is home to more than a million Catholics – so where better than magnificent Westminster Cathedral to gauge the mood of the capital's faithful over the sad death of Pope Francis and the appointment of a successor?
Under the nave with its huge buttresses and shimmering gold and ruby-red mosaics is a side chapel. That's where a seemingly endless stream of worshippers stop by to sit and sign books of condolences – some have to wait their turn and the much-used pens keep running out of ink.
The tears may have dried, but it's clear from this snapshot of London Catholic life that the shock of the Pope's passing on Easter Monday is still raw.
