Photographer's Note
One of my last pictures from my recent travelogue!
Hope you like this one, altough a very similar shot to another recently posted on here, I thought I would share as that one was so well recieved.
This picture was taken from a small roundabout in front of Leceister Square, where Nelsons Column is situated if my memory serves me correctly. This view is looking towards the houses of parliament and the commonly named big ben.
I like the dinamic nature of this shot and I feel it shows the hussle and bussle of London, hope you like it.
Comments and critiques welcome.
Thanks for looking

I really do like your pic, Steven as it really conveys the hussle & bussle of London very well.
Firstly, streets full of people, then the traffic... the dynamics of it is well presented by that moment in the lower right corner.
And if you only count how many buses are there within the frame...!!!

This is a very animated view of London. You managed very well to capture the life. Several great symbols of London and England can be found here: left driving, double floor red buses, Big Ben, stylish lampposts, the yellow boxes for pedestrians, bow windows and columns ... and a british flag on the left. Very well seen.

Very nice perspective, Steven. Your photo captures the lively London traffic at the very best, and of course including the city's most iconic landmark in the back is an ideal add (nice light falling on Big Ben's clockface there). Well done. Looks like you were in pretty much the same viewpoint as I was for my recent "Taxi ride" shot ;-)

Nice busy street shot. The light disorder successfully renders the busy-ness. I like the slight fog that blurs the background.

Nice picture. I really like the bell tower of Westminster in the background!! The slight mist adds something warm to the picture. Well done.

Very nice shot, I remember when I was gone to London, adventure, night in the car in a parking, wash my teets in the toilet of a fast-food, I was student, it was in february 1972! Is it possible, so far? Thanks for sharing, it was good holidays!

Hi Steven, coming back here after some time. I have to say your constant feature in most of your pics is a great deal of neatness in composition. And well defined colors. Like this one too. Does gives the feel of the city. Like the way the 'Big Ben' peers into the scene. Great Shot.

Great ! I have never been there, but this one makes me feel like wandering in London streets and almost feeling the city life.

Hi Steven.
Very natural view of London, with interesting POV and perspective. The light is not optimum, but there's a good depth that gives dynamism to the picture. Thanks for sharing !

Hi Steven,
A nice picture with quite special and fine light. The tower is well separated from the busy street. Well done.
Thanks,
Marek
