Week 27 - London at Night

52 Week Challenge, Week 27 – London at Night

It seems like a very long time since I got a train up to London.

And I have to admit to feeling a little bit apprehensive, unsure of what to expect and still experiencing recently learned insecurities.

I was really looking forward to being in London on a Saturday night again and with my camera.

There is always so much to see and so many of the people are interesting and photogenic.

However, this photoshoot, arranged by Guildford Photographic Society and Peter Merry, was London at Night, working with low light and high contrast conditions.

Not something I have done much of before, so a good learning opportunity.

We had planned to visit Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus but suddenly faced with masses of young people, all out and about having a great time, my learned insecurities kicked in and a couple of us opted for the less crowded spaces.

So I have vowed to visit again, next time during the week, when I may make it to the popular spaces without the scary crowds.

I had a good time venturing beyond my recent limitations and staying up well past my normal bedtime!!

And I got a lot of images I rather liked - hence 3 panels this week.
