London at night

The rain almost forced our arranged London night shoot to be cancelled - but at the last minute we decided to go ahead as the forecast predicted a clear period from 6-9pm. Thankfully the rain held off and it was not cold for this time of year.

We took some classic London shots of St Paul's and the Millenium Bridge, and then moved on to take some photos of the views of Westminster from the area in front of London Eye. For some weird reason tripods are not allowed in the area from the London Eye up to Westminster bridge - we were warned by our group leader before we got there, and sure enough, as we arrived carrying our tripods we had some officious security guards rushing over to say we could not use them. The cameras were balanced on the wall instead!

Then on to Westminster Bridge from where I took this shot of County Hall and the London Eye, and as it started raining we quickly took some night trail shots. By now I was getting cold so we headed off for a light supper at a nearby Slug and Lettuce restaurant, and then I headed off before the others to get the 10.33pm train home. And it was full of nice looking people and I was not at all nervous! It was a wonderful evening, to be repeated in a couple of months' time.
