An evening in London,
-
CelticpicsParticipant
Got the chance to spend an evening in London’s city.
I had to get a few shots of this very iconic city.
C&C welcome.shutterbugParticipantReally nice set of images, love them all especially the phone box, like the processing
you have used.CelticpicsParticipantThanks Jenny,
I know the processing on the phone box is a bit “cliché” but I couldn’t avoid it.
thanks again for your comment.
Philippe.AnonymousParticipantI also like the second one regardless of the processing! If the glove fits as they say….
I think the ‘road literature’ in the first doesn’t help the image.
Going to try get over some time this year, would love to give it a go!sndipoMemberI was in London last weekend now (for the first time)! In town only during the day and didn’t see any of the pretty evening lights or anything though :( Also had no gear with me, just a small pocket camera. Was thinking of throwing a few pictures up once I get the time to sort some but after these..you’ve done a great job portraying the city scene so I think I might keep mine for a while! :D
The phone box shot is spot on! That’s exactly how the whole place made me feel anyway :lol: Looks like there were about 1000000 times less people around in the evening as well – during the day you spend more time stepping sideways to avoid other people than actually getting to places!!
Yes, I am still ‘in the zone’ and therefore might come off as a bit too excited about the subject, haha :)
CelticpicsParticipantThanks for the lovely comments, I suppose I was lucky to be shooting mid-week, but I never met so many landscape photographers in one night.
For the story , I also noticed that once you set up your camera and tripod and start working at your shot , you tend to attract a lot of people, who feel there must be a picture to be taken if you are there, for example once we were set up for the phone box , in a fairly quiet area, a couple of tourists on cycles stopped to see what we were taking shots of , and then proceeded to take pictures of each other pretending to make a phone call with their phones, and had us wait for a good 5 minutes before realising they might be in the way. but that’s all part of the experience.
Also I think you should post your pics of London, there isn’t only one way to look at things, and mine is certainly not better than any one else’s.
cheers.
