From my walkaround in Londonon. Gotta love how B&W can save a terribly exposed image ;)

When peopel say this stuff about film being more flexible etc you'd be amazed how many think B&W...

Fab shots. I like the end of day one on the passenger bridge.


people will always try to stop you doing the right thing if it is unconventional
Full frame and some primes.

I'm liking everything about that last shot, great black and white conversions IMHO.

This is true this is true. But for me I expose B&W completely different than color in the first place. So what may be wrong for color could be right for B&W. Excellent shots. Thanks for sharing. :)

Yea I agree. That first shot looks like it would have been hard to expose correctly as well. Big, bright back lighting with the kids underneath that dark overhang. You did a good job on those. Over/underexposed whatever, if it came out right in the end its a job well done. ;-)a

Theres a tiny bit of vignetting, but it's very much in mood with the shot.

I'm a skateboarder myself, and I've heard its impossible to take a bad picture at southbank :D
I love the place!
I like the pictures too. Particuly like the lines and shapes in the first one.

Love the first shot. The graffiti on the wall in the foreground seems to scream vivid arty colour even in b/w. Never been to Londonon though, is it near the Bronx?
