January 18 2004: Joyful

in Traflagar Square, London

Having just purchased my DSLR, January found new horizons for me. One was candid photography which is much easier with a long lens in certain situations. I have chosen this as an example of my new project to create some decent candid portaiture. I think this Chelsea Pensioner was just laughing at a stranger, and I managed to catch him just before he turned to smile at me, as they are used to people taking photographs of them in their bright red uniforms.
