2008 – My Year In Pictures

Title: Sliced & Diced
Location: Minories, Tower Hill
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: Finally made it up to London this afternoon, thankfully no travel woes on the way this time. I was visiting a photographic shop and gallery in Hammersmith which a friend is thinking of buying. We had a great walk back from Hammersmith to Putney Bridge via the South Bank Thames Path. I took a few pictures on the way, but the weather wasn’t up to much. By the time I got back to Tower Hill to change from the District Line, the Circle was completely screwed up, so I decided to walk back to Liverpool Street. This was a shot of the building on the corner of Minories and Goodman’s Yard which has a huge, curved profile and copper-tinted windows. The reflection of the building opposite was sliced and diced by the flat panes of glass.

Title: Pink Fizz
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: Continuing the single-colour theme, today’s colour was pink. This is a glass of fizzy Russchian Tonic which has a pale pink hue.

Title: Rainy Days
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: What happened to Spring? Today we woke to high winds and lashing rain. Not much incentive to go out!
