Cool. VERY nice exposure. Right there in (what I would call) "the heart of town" under the railroad bridge. Stoney Street. The Borough Market. I would LOVE to go to London and walk around with the camera. Talk about a target rich environment! Back in 1969 or 1970 (IIRC) we had a family trip to London (and Guernsey). So, with NCV's scanning project as incentive, I will try to dig up something of interest and you can determine how it compares to the "now" view. If I remember correctly, we were always getting on and off the Underground at "Marble Arch" station. The phone cameras are great. Why do I lug around a 20 LB backpack full of camera gear? It's good exercise, I suppose? I picked-up a minty 2nd hand 35mm/1.8 a couple of months ago and have enjoyed going out with JUST that lens. Lightweight and sharp, low distortion, with good color/contrast character.

Well, no artistic filter, no pp - it is straight sooc shot with slight crop. Location is Southampton, Ontario, Canada on Lake Huron side. Glorious summer day in August.

Brilliant shor. Boy looks very proud of his freedom...
-
Ahhhh... it's your phone camera. That makes sense. I though it was the Oly! And... I found it on the map. THANKS.

No pp involved, straight sooc with slight crop. I quess some places are more fortunate with environment - location is Southampton, Ontario, Canada, mid August.

I had 2 walks/outings with the camera this week. First... downtown after a business meeting... I retrieved the camera from the car and walked around a few blocks in the vicinity of the parking garage. I like the 35/1.8 for a walk around. Although sometimes the 20/1.8 is better in the city. Then, a quick stop at the north end of RWY 16R-34L. The airplane shots would be better with the 200-500, but that lens is too big for my regular camera bag. It is always fun to shoot and then do some PP fiddling. A good hobby. Just a Couple of pics.

My pick. Awesome.

I really like this, looks like a painting.
-
Nope, just spotted these two outside a bar near London Bridge.
-
Well, I am now...
-
A lot of humour in this, along with a good vanishing point.
-
Yes, that area is very vibrant. Although I would say there are several 'hearts' of London. I find myself trusting the phone more and more. Still have, and love, a Panny GM5 and some tiny lenses. But I do like my Sony too, it makes me feel, due to the effort, I'm taking a real photo ;-)

As ever, technically perfect. Especially the plane shots. How do those huge lumps of metal fly?
-
This is a good one. The subject for me is the emptiness of the sky.
