Photos from London

I’ve been down in London a good deal over the last few weeks, studying for an exam. I brought my phone, of course, which means I brought my camera.

I rarely find the classic London landmarks inspirational for photography. They’re too…well…big.

But the pavement by Tower Bridge really got my interest.

The leaves of an ornamental plant near the Tower also caught my eye.

On one of my visits, I walked by the crew setting up for a concert on the Tower grounds. The ironmongery was interesting.

I was also fascinated by the bright yellow locks on the gates to Trinity Square, a tiny park dedicated to naval war dead near the course hotel.

Overall, though, London does not appeal to me photographically. I guess my heart is in Edinburgh.
