Maybe the artist did think of the sunlight
Photoshop.
I believe both of you are right. I think the the photo was touched up a bit to get the desired effect.
Or… this was constructed on purpose by someone who loves penis
Or maybe it was photoshoped by someone who loves penis!
You should have called this one “Pricks of the Day Dept.”
The sun never shines in London anyway.
Cute, but highly suspect as being photoshopped
If this is authentic, it belongs on http://failblog.org/
Run, do not walk, to that site. It is one of the funniest things on the web.
Look at the openings and you can see it works out perfectly and isn’t photoshopped. Besides, I’ve seen this picture from various angles a few times over the years. Here’s another view:

BTW, good call Phydeau.
Cherman / pedro would love this place. So many great photo opportunities.

Notice how they all twist left. Definitely liberal. Will the indoctrination never stop?
If it isn’t photo-edited, it’s caused by the way the pavement contours the light “shadow”. So it’s not the architect’s fault. It’s the pavement engineers’ fault. But I doubt they were paying any attention.
For a more deliberate design, check out the scene in Dune (1984) where Duncan Idaho talks to someone in the hallway, of the castle. Sorry I couldn’t find a photo. Apparently, they’re tightly controlled.
