Nice! Such an amazing colour in the sky. Did you get up early or were you up late?

Beautiful... Excellent exposure you have here to capture the subtle darker tones, and also hold the highlights. Great composition. Very well done!

Ok: Beautiful. Stunning. Amazing. Favorite. p.s.: the new Sony Alpha feels like a 1000.00 dollar viewmaster toy... The photos are rather disapointing too... lol

Thank you Chris.

Any suggestions for the right side of the photo, or is the white not distracting to you? I'm on the fence at the moment.

we go a long way for our art, s.
lovely, lovely shot.
well worth the bleary-eyed effort.
try and get yourself there over the autumn when there will be imposing skies to capture in the reflection of the thames.

London in autumn... I'm intrigued.

Very beautiful and still did you try one with the wheel going? I'd just suggest a bit more of a crop to take the white lit wall of building out on the right.. bit distracting.

intrinsicvalue In reply to Sun-Seeker [2006-09-27 07:01:45 +0000 UTC]

Unfortunately it doesn't run at 4 AM... and when it moves at all it takes 45 minutes for it to go all the way around. When I return to London with a tripod and a camera capable of a longer exposure, I'll give it a shot.

I was wondering about the white lit portion on the right as well. I'll have to see what I can do with it.

Thank you very much for your input, it is greatly appreciated.

I just hadn't gone to bed yet....

But I shoot with a Canon Powershot S500. Of course, I'm saving up for my first DSLR.
