The Barbican Estate and Surroundings
On a cold Tuesday morning, I decided to have a short photography trip focussed specifically around the Barbican Estate. The Estate itself provided some great opportunities thanks to the harsh concrete aesthetic and strong geometric structure...
Tower Bridge and Bermondsey
Another weekend, another trip to London. This time from Liverpool Street station, across Tower Bridge and through Bermondsey. After a late lunch in The Gregorian pub, I then walked to Hayes Gallery before heading across London Bridge and back to Liverpool Street station.

This photography trip certainly looked as though it may continue the grey skies & rain routine in the morning after leaving the train. Thankfully, however the clouds cleared,... Continue Reading →
When the Sun goes down…

For my latest trip I decided to go out during the darker hours to try and get some interesting shots of lit architecture & structures. I... Continue Reading →
