.london.

...ok, i'm going to preface this by saying, i'm not too impressed with my pics from this trip. the results are kind of lackluster to me, but i think it's because i was expecting so much more, and i was in a bit of a rush both days i brought my loverly camera out of the hotel room.

in front of buckingham palace:


archie in green park, across from buckingham palace. i think my shutter speed was too slow on this one...it's much too bright in the background, and around the edges of archie's face:




archie in front of his co-worker's favorite (and pricy) store. davidof


those cute little telephone booths:


my favorite eating stop!


fly birdies, fly! i'm happy with this picture, since i was able to guess the shutter speed which would freeze the birds' wings. shot at 1/1600 and f3.2:


i played around with my camera settings and punched up the saturation a few settings:


archie and the london eye. i like this one because i was able to capture the different blue and grey clouds in the background. shot at 1/5000 f3.2:


here's where you can really tell i was messing around with the camera settings. the grass was *not* that green there.


i think i was a bit too angled here:


i like the blue in the background:


the eye. again, i like how you can see the contrast between the clouds and the blue sky:


tower of london:


london bridge. we took a boat tour and because i couldn't use my feet to move as much, i couldn't get a great shot of the whole thing:




and a funny one...a husband carrying his wife's gucci purse across london bridge. ha!
