Interesting subject, very nice composition and perfectly exposed. I would expect no less :thumb How are all of our friends in London? More importantly, how's the food?

So are you getting any work done, in between shoots? It must be nice having a job the sends you all over the world and let's you shoot all those pics. That's the job I want when I grow up :rofl


Yeah, you're right. There's very little chance that I will ever grow up. I'm sort of a Peter Pan trapped in a dumpy old man's body :lol

Did you stand there and wait for some people to walk by and get in the perfect spot to balance your composition? :D And then there were no other bodies cluttering up the background. ISO 400 - so no flash, just natural light, huh? Tripod? RAW of course. Anyway, nice exposure. Say Andy, I see you're in London again. What do you do for a living? If I may ask. You sure travel around a lot. Great way to see the world, but you can't be home a whole lot of the time. Has plusses and minuses, I guess. How about the food? Did you have anything good? We've been talking about your food shots. More please.
Thanks for sharing.

hiya snappy :D thanks for the kind comments!

yes, iso 400, no flash - handheld. i stood there for about five minutes, taking three pics in all. this was the last one... yeah, i waited for these people to walk by. i had two with people walking at me, and i didn't like them as much. shot in raw, yes... i only shoot in raw, it gives me total control over the exposure and white balance.

believe it or not, i'm a corporate type :lol3 i'm the head of worldwide field operations for a software company, we provide analytic software to wall street firms. it's really just an excuse for me to travel about and shoot, really :deal plus it really helps that the ceo of the firm, to whom i report, is a photographer also....

food? i'm on the south beach diet, baby! :puke1
