Here's a few I have taken of recent round the City:



City of London crest - outside Blackfriars station



Sign outside the "Hugn Drawn & Quartered" pub on Upper Thames Street



Tower Bridge from South Bank on a misrable day



St Paul's on a sunny day



Swiss RE Tower AKA "The gherkin"



A "griffin" in the Tiling at "Bank" Underground station



Old style phone box that is not covered in grafitti, has smashed windows or smells of piss.

BTW nice photos Mich do you do that professionally or just as a hobby?

Nice pictures - shame they were taken with a camera phone (you can tell I am not keen on them because of their naff picture quality).

Here's some pictures I took earlier from my bedroom window: -

Thanks Chris. I was testing out my new Camera Phone, all of them (except the "pub" sign that was taken with the old one) were taken with the new phone thankfully I don't live to far from the City so I can get better pics with me Digital Camera once I get a larger memory card for it.

Like your images as well especially the colours in the third one.

Thanks, purely a hobby. I was quite suprised how well some of those came out.

http://www.caldecotesteamparty.co.uk will be home to quite a few (generally dull) photos of mine over the next three weeks - the highlight being panoramas taken with my new camera - crude in places but still a great effect.
