Architecture in London: View From St Paul's
The skies were moody. The hail came down. Then the sun came out. So did the rainbow.
Thanks for all views, comments and favs. They are always much appreciated.

This was a rather impromptu little long exposure taken on my phone from the 2nd floor of New Broadcasting House, looking over the piazza towards All Soul's church.
Rather than use a tripod to stabilise the 1 minute exposure time (using the incredible 'Even Longer' app), I just pressed my phone up against the window with my hand and held it there for a minute! This is the only way of capturing the piazza without lots of people in it as it's always busy ...
Another detail shot of the facade of the Monument Building in the City of London, this time reflected on the building opposite on a sunny April afternoon.

The Old Royal Naval College is the architectural masterpiece of Maritime Greenwich, London, designed by Christopher Wren and built between 1696 and 1712. The buildings were originally constructed to serve as the Royal Hospital for Seamen at Greenwich, now generally known as Greenwich Hospital. The hospital closed in 1869. Four years later the buildings were converted to a training establishment for the Royal Navy. The Royal Navy finally left the College in 1998 when the site passed into the hands of the Greenwich Foundation for the Old Royal Naval College.
The Dean's Staircase at St Paul's Cathedral in London has been described as the purest of all Sir Christopher Wren's creations. On one level purely mathematical in its aspect, on another twisting round like apple peel perfectly cut in an unbroken strip.
As with this type of tight structure, it was difficult to find an able that worked well and translated the staircases elegance. This was my best offering – hastily taken as for some unfathomable reason patrons are requested not to take photos. Why?
Considering this was a 0.5 sec handheld exposure I'm not too displeased with sharpness.

This image was taken on my last trip to London with Karin after having a lovely meal at the Sky Garden. The sun was beginning to go down and so we had beautiful light on the buildings on the other side of the river. I had to balance my camera on the rail as I did not bring my tripod, didn't lose it in the Thames so all was well. Hope you like this one.

I've been back to this location a few times since my initial long exposure shot with my phone a few weeks back. Here's another take on the scene using my Fujifilm X-T2 ...

Taken during this year's Open House. Just came out of City Hall (queues were not bad at all - a mere 25 minutes) and felt the need to feed. There's a handy M&S near by and I knew that I wanted to take this point which I had previously made a mental note to take and coincidently I have seen two versions here on Flickr. Almost went for a B&W but resisted the urge as I have uploaded a few recently. I am quite happy how it came out.
Just found out that this area is apparently called 'More London'.

The view from across the river on the west bank of the Greenwich Peninsula. Like so many places in London this is a view that no longer really exists due to the constant progress and development.
I've recently managed to resurrect my images from 2014 on an old hard drive and I've given some of the a fresh processing in Lightroom ...

Despite being in something of a creative doldrums at the moment with regards to my photography, I'm glad I took my little Sony RX100 pocket rocket out on an amble along the Thames at Battersea earlier, along with my trusty GorillaPod.
The conditions were kind and I managed to grab a couple of longish exposures of the power station in quite a nice blue hour light ....
Architecture in London: Switch House. Possibly the last one from this venue. Promise.

Well chuffed with this one - don't think I have seen any other image of the Shard from this angle.

Another twilight shot from my recent visit to Battersea Power Station with my little Sony RX100 and GorillaPod. I quite like the illuminated 'shoulders' beneath the chimney stacks ...

This is another series of my images, this time that show how Modern Architecture has inbedded itself with the more Traditional styles. Some successful, some not to my estimation. But we’re all different in our tastes, you may even like them yourselves.

Residential corridor in the iconic Brunswick Centre. Brutalist concrete housing estate in the Bloomsbury area of central London.
A follow-up visit to the South Kensington area gave me an opportunity to break out my tilt-shift lens in order to capture this view of the main entrance to the Natural History Museum.
This is actually a vertical panorama from two shots taken handheld with a quick turn of the shift knob between each exposure. Although it is possible to capture in a single exposure holding the camera in the portrait orientation, the framing was a little tight, so I wanted the option to have slightly more room in the composition hence the two-landscape-shots-combined approach.
Much like standing in front of Westminster Abbey close up, you really have to be standing in this exact spot to appreciate how much this is to cram in with a 17mm lens.
Unsurprisingly this is a Grade I listed building, #1080675 at Cromwell Road, SW7 5BD.
