Parliament Square, London, 25th July 2009

This shot was taken by a tourist of me during Saturday’s 1 hour photo session. As you can see from the pictures I took, I decided to ask as many people to take my picture in front of Big Ben (yes I know it’s proper name is the clock tower) in the allocated time slot of between 4.00 and 5.00pm. I had set everything on the camera to program and ended up with many pictures that were exposed for the sky so I ended up hopelessly in shade, hence why I mucked about in photoshop on a lot of the pictures just so my face was visible in most of the shots. When the lady took the shot she immediately took another one as she noticed the guy on the phone had walked into the frame. Funny how happy accidents can make pictures look better to my mind yet not to others.
