The Bridge to London Big Ben
London is one of those cities where one could spend a week (or ten) taking photos and still have work to do.
The second day I was in London I went out to shoot some HDRs and of course Big Ben had to be in the picture. I wanted something different than the usual since this photo has been “shot to death” as Scott Kelby wrote. I took it with the Bridge to try and give it more of an eye trail.
I liked the sunset (I had been waiting for it for quite a while) and the lights are nice on the Bridge.
This is based on three photos, which I processed with Photomatix, Lightroom and then adjusted with Topaz.
I hope you like it.
(But I liked my prior “homepage” photo a lot – so was sad to see it scoot over to the back you can see it here: http://martinsoler.wordpress.com/2010/01/17/when-the-sun-sets/)
Very nice. I would hqve cropped it a little more. But its great.
Wow thats great, looks very original.
I love your photos.. very dramatic shots
It’s like a dream!!! sweet dream
Hope you don’t mind a little spot of Londoner pedantry.
Big Ben isn’t in your picture. Very few people get to take a picture of Big Ben. Big Ben is the bell, not the clock (or the clock tower).
Great photo though.
Hi Dave, that’s funny – I didn’t know that at all. Well thanks for the information. And thank you all for your great comments, it’s very encouraging. Keep posting them.
very nice! I’ve got a couple of shots of the same view on my blog, wouldnt mind a critique if you find the time. Yet to catch the view on a nice evening like this one!
Gorgeous!
I’m practising HDR so bad! ^_^
