The last of my London photos...

I finally had some time over the weekend to process my remaining London photos... Mainly they are some photos taken during a walk around the City, and along the banks of the Thames, on a sunny Sunday when I spent the whole day wandering the city on foot.

Here is the gallery...

Some of my favorite photos from this batch...

Leadenhall Market... This is in the City. Like most of the City, it was deserted on the weekend. I would like to get back here sometime when it is busy, it looks quite interesting. It was apparently used in one of the Harry Potter movies, and I can see why, it has a sort of fairyland not quite of this world feel to it...



Another shot of Leadenhall Market...


30 Cannon Street... A very distinctive building...



Guards changing at Whitehall or Westminister or wherever it was... This was taken a few minutes after I was approached by a police officer who made some inquiries about why I was taking pictures, apparently a lot of the buildings around here are sensitive and I had attracted his attention by having such a large lens. We had a long conversation about photography and I hope I conveyed to him that the lens I was using was actually wide angle lens that would not be very useful for detail shots. Frankly I doubt that anyone who had evil intentions would case a location with such a lens that made them so conspicious, there are much less conspicious cameras with good zoom capability that would probably be more useful for discrete photography...
