Travel guide of Oxford Street
Coming home for Christmas, this street is one of my favourites in London and the first time I’ve shot this. I love how the classic red London bus and black cab are both involved.
Milestone reached. 30 photos in 30 days. Well make that 35 days. I kinda missed some - mainly cuz I reached my quota (which was weird). Visiting London after almost 10 years was really amazing. I am so used to the mountains tho, that big cities kinda seem chaotic to me.
I was wondering near the London marathon race course when I found a spot overlooking the main road. After a few dozens minutes waiting a handful athletes started appearing and one of the volunteers moved closer to cheer them. The rest is history :-)
Driving through the British Countryside (hence why we are on the correct side of the road) ;), shooting some cinematic video footage for my vlog and decided that if this was use to anyone, I’d post it up. The video // www.youtube.com/MindOfSly

Pigeon in flight at Trafalgar Square in London City. On my last visit, pigeons were a focal point of the tourism at Trafalgar square, now there are signs warning against feeding the birds. With only a few in the area, it was a shock I was able to catch one in flight. Although I needed to correct the focus in post, I think it really catches your eye as a frozen frame in the city.

From the offices of Camelot, operators of the National Lottery. I had a job shooting portraits for the day and had a moment to capture this unique view whilst I waiting for my clients to walk in.
I was passing through Somerset House one delightful day in June and I decided to grab a couple shots of people sitting leisurely in the courtyard. I love this place so any excuse to come here and capture photos, I’ll take it!
sometime when I travel for work I’m able to bring my camera. I captured this one on a clear fall evening after a long day of work. London is one of my favorite cities in Europe to wander with my camera. I started to explore street photography during my last visit. I love how this great cities great history with our current times.
London is one of themost photographed places on earth. It is difficult to take a picture that “hasn’t been done before”. This one is a classic view from Waterloo Bridge looking east, but the lovely dawn light made it feel crisp and new. I lingered enjoying the view until the sun had risen.

Luckily, during my trip in London, the weather was just amazin. No clouds, pure sun, something you don’t see everyday! And I believe this photography is one of my best during this trip because of the light, weather and of course subject. The Westminster Abbey
Taking a Thames river cruise had us stop at the london eye for more passengers. This unique perspective was offered up as we were docking. I liked this shot because it shows one of the cars hanging in space.

On a walk around the Granary Square/Kings Cross area of London, this building caught my eye - brand new and unused, it was nevertheless a striking colour especially matched against the bright blue sky.

I was catching up with an old friend and noticed this tree compared to others had really started to blossom. Standing there, I realised I was peering through something that had just begun its life to look at something already so full of life. That’s this wonderful city, London, for you.

I’ve always wanted to photograph the Millennium Bridge. Numerous posts on Instagram made it seem like a fascinating destination - especially at sunrise and sunset. The only issue? The sun rose far to early in the morning and too many people were around at golden hour. With that in mind, I decided to try something a bit different using a ND filter.

For most of you, V&A is a place you pass through once, admiring all the art and skeletons, stairs and all its stunning rooms. For me, it was my daily escape ‘room’ to my lunch break; I miss it heaps. It even smells like home.

One Blackfriars on the Thames’ South Bank has to be one of the ugliest proponents of modern architecture that puts making a profit over the legacy of future generations. One has to wonder what London Borough Southwark’s planners were thinking (or rather not) when they approved this carbuncle, -but it makes for interesting photography ;-)

Always wanted to photograph this beautiful 12th century church, damaged in the Great Fire and then finished off by a bomb in WWII. It is now a garden in the City of London, and a lovely place to have lunch.

Early in the morning, to have the best light and less people. It was the last day of my trip in London which was wonderful and so sunny, nothing better to end it than seeing one of the best symbol of London!
