snagged this one last week walking back from meeting a friend
glad I got out of london when I did - smells, everyone's rude and its ****in' expensive!
still, moments that show up like this prove there's more under this murky vaneer thats far more unexpected

well I've lived there most my life, born there, went to school outside london though, Uni back in london (for two degrees) and now I'm out I can't believe how nasty its become every time I go back home.

Nice shot. I like the reflection under the bridge off the water. The only thing spoiling it for me is the shadows blocking up and the detail you're losing, which is there to be recovered. You haven't ticked your edit box so I haven't played with it. :)

yeah, I toyed with it a bit but preferred leaving the shadows quite dark to highlight the...um...light. oh and its taken on the P200 so straight to jpeg, slightly trickier after getting comfortable with RAW but there you go
