My friend John enters competitions in which he films adverts for companies 'crowdsourcing' (getting cheap labour) for new advertising campaigns. Last night we stalked the streets of London getting footage for an ad for an international hotel chain. It was fun, but I hardly lifted my camera all night.
I only went out with my 50mm lens, I shot at 800ISO all evening and I never had an aperture smaller than 5.2 or something, you know, if that kind of thing matters to you.Monday, March 14

I Would Prefer My Fingers | The Meh-Lenium Bridge
It's far too cold to be out with a camera pointed at a bridge and cathedral that has been photographed several bazillion times before, far, far too cold. So, of course, when I was invited to take photos at the German Fair on Southbank, I suggested that we stop and take photos of said bridge instead, because I'm a genius and a masochist.
I got one shot off before realising that I hadn't charged my batteries and then the camera died, so all in all it was a totally pointless endeavour that produced this one derivative and dull photo.

Untitled
I always forget my tripod, I forgot it yesterday after swearing that I would definitely remember it because I had forgotten it the day before. Oh well. Where a tripod is needed, often a bin will suffice. So here is a perfectly straight bridge with a slant.
I hope you like it.

The Sights You See Without Your Tripod | London by Electric Light
Office party last night. So I went armed with my camera in the hope of capturing some candid shots of my colleagues doing something incriminating. I got those shots. I also got some shots of the city. Here are two of them, a few more will follow.
