10 December

My Street, 6am

I had to be in the office by 6.30, so I ordered a cab (the Tube has been so unreliable). As I was
waiting, I set my camera on a wall and pushed the button. The rest of my day was pure crap; lots went wrong.
I took some photos half-heartedly on the way home, but I knew they were not very good.

I had forgotten about the first photo I took until I saw the images on the screen. I liked it. I liked it
so much that I have done no processing except to crop the right side. This is colour out of the camera; not sepia.
I was tempted to work on the reflections, but I decided for once to keep Photoshop to a minimum.

Great image - makes me want to pull my tightly wrap my coat around myself against the morning chill.

Great shot...there's something very beautiful about sulpher street light yellow, kind of adds a perfect finish to everything

Nice perspective Jim, this brings back a lot of memories, my uncle lives on a street just like this one, but then again, I'm sure this street resembles most streets in London.

Good photo. I love when I forget about an image in the camera until I upload it later and get pleasantly surprised. Now didn't that turn your day around?

Very beautiful. Too bad you didn't get to see it earlier in the day; would have made your day better.

A good image. The sepia colour gives a nice feel.

Nice. Looks like it could be a street in Washington,DC.
