After not having much time recently for photography I decided to go out today and take some shots since it was a perfectly clear day and wonderfully cold. I packed all my stuff, even remembering a spare battery, and headed down to Blackheath for some lunch, I looked around for a place to go since the only place there is terrible with service (but has great food) and in the end I decided on them after all.
After lunch I forgot my tripod in the shop, I should have given up here already. I only realized this after I was like 10 minutes away and had to turn back, after another 10 or 15 minutes I made it to Greenwich Park and saw something I wanted to take a photo off, turned the camera on to the “no data card” error message, I forgot my CF card in my computer! So I head back home to fetch it, another 30 minutes each way down the drain.
As it is winter and the sun pretty much just falls from the sky now and so I missed the best time of the day and could not take the kind of photos I had in mind anymore. I walked around a bit and found some other stuff to take photos of but I then realized that my remote control for my camera had a flat battery and was of no use to me, the end result is a whole pile of blurred photos due to tripod shake from having to press the shutter by hand ๐
For all of this I only had one semi decent shot – Greenwich University with Canary Wharf in the background for a nice contrasting scene – click on the thumbnail below to see the 800 x 600 version.
After this I spent the night putting up a gallery category dedicated to Bridges, I love bridges, if there is one thing that will force me to stop and take out a camera it’s a bridge and I love living in a city with plenty of them compared to previous cities I lived in.
