Sometimes you know that you'll have a chance to go to an awesome location and may be, snap some nice shots. You get everything ready, camera, lenses, filters, SD card, you walk there, take the subway, pay a shitload of money and then, when you arrive, you enjoy to view, look around, and realize your forgot your tripod.
And at this moment, you become very inventive about ANY solutions that would enable you to take the shot you want with the angle you want haha.

In case you are interested, here is the original image that served as a starting point for this experiment:
Screening of the silent film "Metropolis" with an original score composed and played by Cameron Carpenter on the digital organ. Wu Tsai Theater, David Geffen Hall, Lincoln Center. An extraordinary experience.

The evening of this years 'London 24in24' event back in June didn't provide a spectacular sunset but at least the dusk gave some good blue hour opportunities.

From Wikipedia, "The City of London, also known as the City, is a city, ceremonial county and local government district that contains the ancient centre, and constitutes, along with Canary Wharf, the primary central business district (CBD) of London and one of the leading financial centres of the world. It constituted most of London from its settlement by the Romans in the 1st century AD to the Middle Ages, but the modern area referred to as London has since grown far beyond the City of London boundary. The City is now only a small part of the metropolis of Greater London, though it remains a notable part of central London. The City of London is not one of the London boroughs, a status reserved for the other 32 districts (including Greater London's only other city, the City of Westminster). It is also a separate ceremonial county, being an enclave surrounded by Greater London, and is the smallest ceremonial county in England.
The City of London is known colloquially as the Square Mile, as it is 1.12 sq mi (716.80 acres; 2.90 km2) in area. Both the terms the City and the Square Mile are often used as metonyms for the UK's trading and financial services industries, which continue a notable history of being largely based in the City. The name London is now ordinarily used for a far wider area than just the City. London most often denotes the sprawling London metropolis, or the 32 Greater London boroughs, in addition to the City of London itself."

One of my favourite movies is Fritz Lang's Metropolis, with its visions of vast machinery crushing the human spirit. This view of the counterweight on Victoria's Johnson Street swing bridge evokes the movie and its themes.

the approach to St Peters Square in Manchester sees little direct sunlight in the morning due to the new buildings that surround it.
El edificio Metrópolis es un edificio en la ciudad española de Madrid, de inspiración francesa, ubicado en la esquina de la calle de Alcalá con la Gran Vía.
Inaugurado el 21 de enero de 1911, fue adjudicado por concurso y diseñado por los arquitectos franceses Jules y Raymond Février para la compañía de seguros La Unión y el Fénix. La obra final la llevó a cabo el español Luis Esteve Fernández-Caballero, que la terminó en 1910.
Fue construido sobre el terreno liberado durante la construcción de la Gran Vía, al derruirse la conocida popularmente como "Casa del Ataúd", llamada así por lo estrecho del solar en donde se ubicaba, entre las calles de Alcalá y del Caballero de Gracia.
Se asume habitualmente que Gran Vía comienza en el Edificio Metrópolis. Sin embargo, su dirección exacta es calle de Alcalá 39. El primer edificio al comienzo de Gran Vía, nº 1, es el Edificio Grassy.
Es uno de los edificios más representativos de Madrid, el que aparece en casi todas las postales y fotos. Icono de la ciudad casi desde su nacimiento por su ubicación y la elegancia que desprende. Sobre esta cúpula se puede ver una victoria alada, obra de Federico Coullaut Valera.
Wo Lok Estate is the oldest existing public housing estate in Kwun Tong District, and the first public housing estate with seven-storeys blocks. The estate comprises 11 blocks of buildings of Old Slab type built from 1962 to 1966.
It was developed into 2 phases. Phase 1 included 8 seven-storey blocks built in 1962 and 1963, while Phase 2 included 3 blocks built in 1965 and 1966. In 2007, the government evaluated the condition of the buildings, and found them all structurally sound. However, structural repair and improvement works were carried out to sustain the buildings for the next 15 years.
