London January 2006

I put this gallery up as a reminder to myself to always CHARGE MY BATTERY before a trip. I had 48 hours on business in London, took my 20D, ready for a great day of shooting. After taking these eight pics, my battery died. Here's the real kicker - just a few minutes later as I'm walking over the Thames River near Big Ben, a huge grey WHALE comes swimming by. Amazing... turns out to be the first whale to come all the way upstream into London in 85 years and I was there to see it. So what do I have to show for this awesome sight? 8 pictures of taxis and street signs - the horror, the horror.

Aww...sorry to hear about your battery. I rushed out of work on my lunch break to see the whale - it had gone further out of the city by that time!!! Well done on these shots, they are great! :)
