A walk along the River Thames
Oh, it's terrible, I really should update this site more regularly. I'm still taking photos but just not getting them up here enough. I managed to get a local shop (Farm W5 in Ealing) to display a range of my photos which has kept me a little busy recently. Anyway, here are a few more for you.
Last weekend the weather finally cleared up and I took a nice long walk along the Thames from Sloane Square, down to Battersea then Embankment via Waterloo and the London Eye. It was later afternoon, early evening so I got the best light of the day, low, setting sun light.
The first is, as I'm sure you know, Battersea Power Station taken from the end of Sloane St. between Victoria and Battersea Bridge. It was taken in infrared which explains the dark sky.

The next, still Battersea Power Station was taken from just across the river, again this is in infrared. Although it was later afternoon the sun was very bright and still too contrasty for "normal" shots. I think a polorizing filter would have created an interesting effect but I'd forgotten it on this occasion.

I'm not sure what this building is, it's right next to the MI5 building, I'll have to Google around and see if I can find out. Anyway, this was about the last shot I got in sunlight, again in infrared.

Right, you'll recognise this, the London Eye taken from Lambeth Bridge. The sun's gone down so there's no more infrared to play with.

The building you didn't recognized in Vauxhall is the one where John Major bought an apartment.
