JUST LOVELY...

I just couldn't but help slipping this picture in, it's such a lovely positive image to me, hopefully it's a sign of the summer that is to come. I took it in the churchyard of St Brides Church, Fleet Street as I was leaving after visiting while on my photo walk. Just love sunlight coming through leaves, you can't beat it...

AN OLD LONDON STROLL...

  World © Geoff Wilkinson - All right reserved
Had a lovely walk around a very old part of London on Sunday during the photowalk workshop. The day started gloomy and overcast, exactly what we need for the first part of the walk in alleyways and courtyards, then summer sunshine in the afternoon.

I took today's photograph in St Brides Church, Fleet Street, its the spiritual home of the media, hence my love for it. It's a fabulous building and it always reminds me of our own St Mary the Virgin in Overton Drive, Wanstead. St Brides was designed by  Sir Christopher Wren in 1672 although much of the original was gutted by fire during the blitz in 1940. If you are in the Fleet Street area do try to pop in you won't be disappointed. 

I can't wait for next week's walk...

For technically minded photographers I used the HDR method to take this photograph. If you would like to know more about that you will be able to see an article on my photography blog at Geoff Wilkinson Photography shortly.
