Photography excursion



Since Richard and I am both on holiday and living in a house share with 12 others, if we're not sleeping late or watching things on YouTube, we're taking afternoon naps and/or eating. We're so bad, so we decided to leave the house (it's about time) and go for a walk. It ended up being a little bit more of a marathon of dodging shopper-frenzied Londoners - Central London is such a mad house during these January Sales season, never again... We walked all the way from Bank station to Tottenham Court Road Station after which I was pretty much spent. Good news though, our day resulted in 3 precious finds (all from the Virgin Megastore in Tottenham); Chopper and The Blues Brothers (both movies on Richard's list of favourites) as well as Bernard Fanning's album Tea & Sympathy. (which will only be delivered in 2 or 3 days...) So things were worth our while.



Somewhere in the middle of the crazy day we did stop over at my favourite place in Central London, the TATE Modern Museum. We didn't go to any exhibitions, but in the main entrance hall another crazed artist has convinced the critics that the Naked Keizer was actually wearing invisible clothes. Huge slides from the 3rd and 4th floors spiralled and intertwined ending in long straight openings, spewing kids and adults in over sized pillow covers. What a site. But that was not what I noticed, I noticed this little girl playing by herself unnoticed. I think my shot came out quite beautifully.

It was a good day.
