Went on a walkabout in town the other weekend.
Saw a guy doing pigeon control with a hawk at Trafalgar square, a protest against the BBC due to Gaza, and had a lovelly clear night for shooting the river.
Venus was out and shinging bright.

I really like how you composed that fisheye shot.

Manic_Skafe · 02-05-2009, 05:37 PM

Yeah, that second is really the standout shot. The others are nice as well but the second shot is quite special.

Good stuff.

These photos make me really wish i had the spare money to visit London and my family in Wales.

Thanks.

Agree with the fisheye photo standing out. Very well composed.

The natural curve in Regents street was begging for it.

Ah reminds me of home. Nice shot of the Thames River at night

Regent Street with the fisheye is just awesome. Great composition, too! London is one of my favorite cities for photo safari. I have been there 3 times and plan to return!

How did I miss this? Very very pretty.

I'm thinking it's time I got a DSLR, as my old film camera is just not up to how I want to use it.
