Time For Air

I was in London for a couple of days this week for a job at the ExCel Centre in Docklands. After finishing, I had an hour or so before catching the train home in which to walk along the river and take some pictures. It was freezing cold and there was an icy wind but I was glad for the opportunity - been indoors for too long and after being shut up inside ExCel I needed to get out and get some air. At least it was dry and the light wasn’t bad although the sky was pretty grey and overcast so I managed to get a few shots of the Victoria Dock and the elevated bridge over the river.

I also managed a few of the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf on the horizon - this was from a completely different angle to those I have taken on previous occasions and the sun just peeped out enough to give a glint to the glass structures which was good. Once I get a chance to process them, I’ll add a couple to the inventory in my eBay store as my urban shots seem to sell quite well there.

Traveling back north from London by train on a Saturday is never much fun - it seems to take forever. I can’t understand why a journey that takes just over 2 hours during the week is double that on a Saturday and that is without the time it takes to get from Customs House to Euston. Crazy.
