Long story short? I too was stuck in London before Christmas. Managed to get home on Christmas Eve, too - just like a Folgers commercial. So it worked out in the end, but it was 6 total days of wondering if we could make it. What kept me sane? Taking photos of an awesome city, of course.

ALL of these were taken with the TSE 24L II, so if you've visited that thread you may have seen these shots. Performed flawlessly and magically. I also took my 85L, but saved it for just casual snapshots of me and the wife.

I had to limit this to 8 shots, oh well. All are available in original resolution, so check them out on Flickr! Also check on Flickr for additional descriptions.

Great shots of an incredible city. I would be happy to be "stuck" in London.

Kenny, these are epic.

Guys and gals, you are all making me blush. Thanks much! I think the real star of the shots is the city of London, I must admit.
