2008 – My Year In Pictures

Title: Beat The Rush
Location: Galleywood
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: This week’s 366 Theme is Movement, so I nipped out as it was getting dark to photograph the traffic trails on the A12. Not a great shot, but it’s the best I could do with only a few minutes to spare.

Title: Gone With The Wind
Location: Piccadilly Circus
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: The London OpenCoffee event has been running on a weekly basis for some time, but yesterday was the first time I had been able to go. An interesting mix of people, most of whom I haven’t bumped into before in the London web community. It was a dreary, drab day in the West End, but I was lucky not to get the drenching which the weather forecast had promised. Perhaps the rain had Gone With The Wind? Or was it the traffic? I also met up with a friend in the afternoon, then went on to another monthly networking event in the evening. Consequently, I spent rather too long camped in Starbucks, drinking coffee and working on the laptop. Was feeling rather buzzy by the evening – I haven’t drunk so much coffee in ages!

Title: Stating The Obvious
Location: No.19 Bus Route, Chelsea
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: I was in Battersea this afternoon to take down my photographic exhibition, then I needed to be in Holborn for Substandards Pancakes. The No.19 bus rather conveniently connects the two. Sitting on the top deck, somewhere near the Kings Road, I happened to catch the bus in front just passing the right word painted on the road

Title: A12 Traffic
Location: Romford-ish
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: On the way to Newbury Park tube, for PubStandards this evening. Luckily, I was in the passenger seat!
