That London

It’s been a long, long time since I went out with my camera as a tourist. I’d thought of doing this earlier in the year, but decided to take advantage of a trip to the Gherkin for the Fellows Lunch for a bit of sightseeing the day and morning before.

All but the final photos were taken on my Olympus E-PL9. I don’t think I’ve done a post about that yet; kept meaning to, never got around it it. Sounds familiar… The final three photos though are taken from the 39th and 40th floors of the Gherkin.

It’s also a reminder to me to fix the issue with the Gallery posts. Some use the in-built gallery alone, some use a now-disabled plugin.

Garden gate

Had to take this shot when I went round my mum’s earlier today – a frost-covered spider’s web on her front gate.

Then and now

I was fortunate to have a ‘golden ticket’ to tonight’s Leeds Trinity University 50th Anniversary Gala Dinner, and took the opportunity to have this photo taken, recreating one I did a little over 27 years ago at the Going Down Ball in Harrogate, 1989. Still got it.
