So after the last post I did about Earth Hour, I went up to the ‘Top of the Rock’… basically the roof of the Rockefeller Center in New York, to see the lights go out on the Empire State Building. Above, you see the picture of the ESB in darkness…
This is another picture from the archives… taken from a recent central London visit. I managed to time my London Eye visit just about right, so that I got dusk and sunset as we were rotating around the skyline…
Another shot from London, taken from the London Eye – just as my pod was ‘landing’ again. The County Hall sits just over the river from the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben, and was opened by King George V….
Decided to take the tilt/shift lens that I mentioned in my last post, up to the top of ‘Top of the Rock’. Happened to choose the coldest day known to man. Well, so far this year, and so far in the city…
Taken on the same day as this one, just found it in my collection and having initially passed over it, it’s now growing on me, so I decided to post it…
Wanted to get a different view of St Paul’s, so was looking around intentionally for reflections. The building opposite (One St Paul’s Churchyard I think it’s called) did the job nicely, and I took this shot featuring the dome, and the cross on the summit. I also like the dark areas between the columns on the front of the building reflection.
