Pictures from London

I got stuck working in London opening weekend of archery deer season. It would be much more enjoyable had I not been working 12 hr days. We got about 2 hours to take pictures this trip so here are my captures. Hope you enjoy...

The sun didnt want to cooperate in the 2 hrs I had, so I made due. The thing I love about England is the brilliant blue sky when the clouds split.

gotta love workin for the man.
Those are some great shots of London

. I visited there 5 years ago, and I recognize where you shot many of those. (You didnt run into Phil Askey, from dpreview, doing a camera review did you?

)

Thanks! Its an awesome place, but right now if I was going for a vacation, that is the last place on earth I would choose. The US dollar is in such bad shape vs the Sterling, even just going to McDonalds is going to cost $10-$12 USD for lunch. Me and a co-worker saw a Chili's while we were there and decided to give it a try. Ended up spending around 70 USD there without alcohol ( it would have been around 30 USD in the US ). The hotel ( which was decent but nothing too crazy ) was around ~380 USD per night. It made Tokyo look like a bargain.

Saw lots of photographers, but no one I recognized

Great pictures Txbowhunter

I can hardly notice any vertical line tilt except in the first two of Big Ben(?), in the first picture the tilt gives it an abstract look, which looks cool.
