I’m uploading some pictures to flickr as I type this (click the “flickr” link in the top menubar to view my photos.)
Mostly panorama’s I shot today at the tower bridge, and the tower of london. I’ve got some regular still shots too, they’ll be up later as well as a couple HDR’s if they turn out ok.
Mind the ghosting in the panorama’s, it seems impossible to get a clear shot without somebody walking in front of my lens, let alone 4,5,7,10,+ shots to stitch together to make a nice panorama.
London is totally enchanted, I feel as though I should take a picture with every step.
Well, after the last minute scare a few days ago, everything worked out, and I’ve arrived in Croydon, England.
The flights were long and boring, but business class is truly another world, totally plush.
So far the Croydon area is nice, a pleasant mix of old and new, and as always the public transport is superb.
I realized that my choice of purchasing the £50 oyster card was a bit of a mistake as the national rail lines are a better option, so tomorrow its off to purchase a sim card for my phone, a 7-day travel card, and then into central london to be an annoying tourist.
I’ll hopefully start taking pictures tomorrow and uploading them to flickr.
cheers!
So there’s a 99.9% chance that I’ll be taking an extended trip to the U.K. from July 9th to August 6th, spending a week in London, then a 5-6 day side trip to Bruges, Amsterdam and Paris, then back to U.K. to hopefully see Wales and scotland.
Airfare is covered, and room and board is partly covered.
Now I just need to find the cash to pay for food, drink, and entertainment.
Donations greatly appreciated.
