Colin & Anne's Wedding

Hi,

I have finally got around to processing the pictures that I took at Colin and Anne's wedding. The event was great and the venues were superb.

Colin at the church:


Preparing the candles:


During the Ceremony:


(BTW, the priest was pretty adamant that only the hired professional photographer take pictures, but I snuck a few anyway. The 85 1.2 came in quite handy in the church!)

The Newly-weds:



Some fun at the reception venue:



(I think that they got this idea from our wedding!)

Of course the women wanted in on the fun as well:

The venue had an amazing set of stairs. I snuck in behind the photographer and nipped a few shots.

Some fun after the dinner:

Enjoy!

London Open House 2009 this weekend!

Hi all,

Just a reminder to everyone that London Open House is this weekend. It is a great chance to walk around and see some of the capitals best architecture.

Details here: http://www.londonopenhouse.org/

I've been to the event for around 5 years now and I'm going again this year.

A few tips:

• Pick a popular building first and get there early to avoid the big queue
• Bring a jacket, water and comfortable shoes
• pick building that are close together to avid wasting time traveling
• Finally, enjoy the day!

Canada Day London

Hi,

Last week was Canada Day, and I spent it in Trafalgar Square with my camera doing some event Photography. It was quite a long day (10am to about 2am), it was very hot and sunny (over 30 degrees and no shade) and my feet were killing me at the end. I probably was carrying too much kit (monopod, 1D, 30D, a flash plus 3 lenses and other bits and bobs).

The event was very well run, with Network Canada supplying the volunteers and Rainmaker event managing. Given the fact that it was pulled together at the last moment, it was spectacular.


Enough talk, now onto some photos:

A bit more snow...

Snow in London 01

I can be quite bad about posting my pictures sometimes. These pictures were taken on 1 Feb 2009 after a massive snowfall in London. About half the amount is required to completely shut-down the country, so the following day was a work-from-home day.

Magpies

Today we cover my pets. A couple of magpies that nest outside of the flat in London. They are quite social, in fact they regularly fly to the window and peck at the glass until I look at them and acknowledge their presence. Of course, when I have the camera out, they never fly near the window, but I did catch a few snapshots earlier in the spring whilst they were touching up their nest.

Now onto the pictures:
