my favourite photo location in london
Comments (0)

this is one of my favourite places for taking pictures of big ben in london. on a clear evening the setting sun makes the palace of westminster glow orange. And the reflection in this window is always spot on !

i was glad to walk past this location again last night when the conditions were aligned.

apologies for the posting of this photo again, but it is a new fresh one and i love it so !

the great thing about this time of year is that it gets dark early so i've been able to grab some nice evening sunlight shots like these.

i sometimes get asked if i ever get in trouble whilst taking photos. well, mostly i avoid confrontation as much as possible, although i did get chased off by the security guards outside the gherkin recently.

this photo had potential to be a bit more exciting. the guy on the floor is a drunk homeless type (street embassador as i like to call them). to his right, just out of frame were too conscious drunks, and it was them i was worried about.

assuming they hadn't been there, i would have laid on the ground and zoomed in on the union jack of his trousers with big ben in the distance. but i thought his friends might jump on me so i got this shot instead.

sorry about that.
