Some of you may know, but I've been on Holidays in London, Europe and Hong Kong for 5 weeks.
I've only processed about 8 days worth of the 35 days

Here are a few of the better ones.

Thanks.
First one was just lucky Right place right time.

The Big Ben one I'd seen before, and hunted out the location, which wasn't that hard.

Thanks for commenting,

You can't do that.
Use it as inspiration to get there one day yourself!!

Super series Scott.

You've managed to combine the snapshot with the artistic

(Good to see Audery looking so well too)

All good shots. The colours in #1 are beautiful and the sunlight hitting the buildings makes it a standout for me.

[ScottH]

Thanks guys.

Have people heard about the issues with the building on the left in pic #1?
It's nick named the walkie talkie due to it's shape, but it has a far more sinister issue than that.
Due to the concave shape the suns rays are intensified in certain locations around the building and causing major heat issues.
It has melted car parts and set fire to a bike seat. Very serious issues, but quite funny!!

Thanks for sharing Scott I am enjoying your pics and also have looked at your flickr sets, They bring back the memories, My wife and I did a tour of Britain and Ireland in 2011, and It's amazing how many pictures we took alike.

HA, at the "pictures alike" comment.
As I was there last year as well it was a challenge to shoot different things or the same things differently.

Are you Pics on Flickr I'd like to have a look

I have some on flickr but could never put them all on, I took over 6500 over 27 days with my Nikon D3000, and over 600 with a 12mp nokia phone camera, funny thing is I wasn't into photography then as I am now, When we got back my wife kept the D3000 and I got myself a Nikon D7000.
A lot of my photos were taken though a tour coach window or from the sight seeing buses in London.

WOW, you covered a lot in 27 days.
We had 13 days in London this year, 14 last year, and over 6 months in the UK 25 years ago.
I recognise a lot of those place. Some we didn't see though.

Thanks for sharing. I loved your Bath Pics.
We spent a fair bit of time in and around York. Loved that place too.

We went with an insight tour coach, there were 44 aussies on board.
We spent three nights in London prior to the tour. It was our first time overseas so we didn't take full advantage of our time. If we did it again I would take a lot more night shots of the places we stopped, we were a little overwhelmed by the whole experience, but it was amazing and I would really love to go again.
