    Canary Wharf blue hour

    Thanks. If anything I wondered if it was too cool already lol. I find these night shot hards to judge the "right" WB so just adjust for my taste. Would a white card would help much in this situation? The light sources near the camera are different to those in the scene.

    A couple more from Jokulsarlon

    Two quite different takes but equally good (y). Lovely foreground and colours in 1 and just the right amount of motion in 2 for me. My only niggle is the bit of iceberg creeping into the RHS in 2.

    Canary Wharf blue hour

    Yes that's what I meant - thanks Steve. One day I'll avoid the breeze down there I think the buildings are pretty vertical, so might just be the shape of the dock that misleads. But happy to be corrected!

    Canary Wharf blue hour

    Thanks for the comments, its a reasonably well-known spot - and hard to get anything different to others tbh

    Headstone Tunnel

    Really like this and well executed (y) Only thought is that the wet patches in the foreground draw my eye away a bit from the brickwork and view down the tunnel

    My take on London

    Well spotted on the first one, I wonder if a crop would make more of the eye-catching shadows and less of the sky or concrete 2 is nicely done, presumably the view is still made difficult by the tideway tunnel construction platforms!

    Mothers Cap

    Works perfectly for me, love the light on the foreground / rock and with enough space to see the view & the sky (y)

    Canary Wharf blue hour

    Popped down to Canary Wharf for blue hour tonight - not as still as I wanted, but enough to get some OK reflections Looks like some banding in the sky but it must be compression as it's not present in the full file. Canary Wharf blue hour by Mike Smedley, on Flickr

    Stormy Lyme Regis

    Not my type of shot at all but I really like it (y) The contrast between beach/buildings and the clouds caught my eye first and then I got sucked into exploring the detail and people.

    The Angler / Photographer

    All good but love the simple bold shapes and colours in #2

    Westminster tube station

    Thanks for the comments - I think there are some good shots in there that I haven't found so will go back again sometime :)

    Westminster tube station

    Edit: Added one more which I think is a better view from the first spot and with more processing (for better or worse!) A few on passing through the tube station tonight. Can't really decide if I like them or not but the station was empty so seemed a shame not to try :) Any thoughts welcome &...

    Tower Bridge sunrise

    Thanks everyone for the comments Good luck with conditions Tony - I was very lucky as I've never seen it so still and early Sunday is probably about the only time to avoid boats

    Reflection

    Love this kind of shot and perfectly put together and processed for me (y)

    St Michael's Mount

    Thanks - the causeway is to the left, i.e. the picture is taken from the right of it. It was a fairly low tide to expose the foreground rock
