:thumbs: You speedy bugger you! That first shot is well worth his £1 fee :p and lol at number 4 - the fun that can had with a revolving door and 10-20s! :p

[magpieant]

Wez ....

Glad you enjoyed your visit to the promised land! Looking forward to seeing some more of everyone's pictures - some stunning shots there mate!

Cheers

The 3rd from last is my pick (although all good), the long exposure has given a dream like quality to the clouds, contrasting exceptionally well with the hard contours of the bridge.

Good exposure and a very well balanced composition.

I'd consider cropping a gnats crotchet from the right, those street lights distract a touch (or clone them )

Lots to like here :)

[dellipher]

Some lovely pics....pity i missed it x maybe next time x

[InaGlo]

Last shot is my fave ... love the rich colours in the sky :thumbs:

Think I recognise the 'chimps' in the revolving door too :lol:

[digitalfailure]

The night shots are great, love the skies.

I recognise one of the "chimps" as the bloke who's neither a lemon or a jimmy, but I can't put a name to the other :shrug:

[InaGlo]

Tis another Matty me thinks ... though this one isnt french & nor does he live down south! ;)

[dellipher]

Yep t'other one is Matty. :)
He is from down south *** Glo, so could cause some confusion. :lol:

Albeit he's an honourary Northerner!

[Slvrbck]

O wow.....
The shots of th Millenium Bridge are just amazing.....
Fab work

[richmond]

Love the staircase, makes me feel quite dizzy. :help:

Vertigo

[hepburn]

Superb... Wish I could have made today but alas I was needed elsewhere. However, roll on Thursday and hope the rain holds off for me... :)

[Wile E. coyote]

Great pictures Wez, looks like it was a good day for it, really wish I could have made it.

Haha, i just think the look of you both on there is priceless haha, and i think i might reprocess that shot of the busker, these shots are virtually straight out of the camera, just small crop here and there and a saturation boost mainly.

Wez ....

Glad you enjoyed your visit to the promised land! Looking forward to seeing some more of everyone's pictures - some stunning shots there mate!

Thanks, it's a great city.

Thanks Les, i have a 121 second exposure but it's come out very purple, i'm going to have a play with it today to see what i can do with it.

pity you missed it yes it is, we had a great day, not to make you feel guilty or anything :D

Thanks, they may have well been chimps hehe.

Thanks and yes, maybe next time :)

[mattyh]

Lovely shots Wez, all of them, apart from the 4th one :razz: :lol:

[CraigDouglas]

Loving the chimp action :D

You've got some real nice pics there wez! I was going to say how did you find the energy to go through them when you got back, but then remembered you lived the closest out of us all :p

[wez130]

i was still knackered, but our lass was watching eastenders omnibus, needless to say, i soon found the energy to go thorugh some of my pics, still got about 150 to go through lol.

[mattyh]

OMG, I think eastenders would've finished me off :lol:

[Geordi69]

Very nice pics there.

[Forbiddenbiker]

Great set all Wez, lovin the first few, great comps nicely done.

[squitty]

Great shots looking forward to seeing more.

Neil

[wez130]

thanks, i'll probably post another set later on when i can be arsed to process them :D

[dundiggin]

Hi Wez

Love those shots - will aim to get some of mine up soon. I felt like a real lightweight, having to leave at 1.30. Also can't help feeling that I missed out by not being there for the twilight part of the meet. Thanks for organising it.

That Baltic stairwell is surprisingly photogenic - I hope my shot of it with the girl in the pink coat worked out - will find out and (hopefully) post it soon.

That pigeon on your bridge shot is a star - I didn't even see it, probably nearly stood on it.

Judging by the exif in the revolving Sage door shot....you must have still been in when I went in at about 12:30pm. I went to the cafe and had a look round but didn't notice a group with camera's.

Couldn't of stayed anyway but hopefully next time.

[Toothie]

I love the shot of the staircase. It's right up my street :thumbs:
