London mostly in B&W

I'm up London for 3 days this week. Should be fun tomorrow if the G20 protest kicks off! There were plenty of police about tonight.

Anyway I thought I'd drag my little Canon compact along this morning and take a few photos as I walked from Liverpool Street.






which version do you prefer? I thought I'd leave it colour as OC would like to see some flowers but the B&W looks interesting.




This is Wesley's Chapel. It's in the book and I've been before.




I'm on floor 8 of this building.

    Some good subjects for which the B&W works really well. The mirror (?) in the penultimate picture's quite amazing; it also looks so clean!

    My preference is for colour. The colour of the flowers create a good foil to the black/white/grey of the headstones. Gives drama.

    (Hope the lift's working!)

    Sounds like fun Pete, hope you get a chance to do some more sightseeing. I prefer the color graveyard one because of the flowers.

    Enjoyed the pictures. I love the coloured one of the flowers. The colours in the entire picture are wonderful.

    cheers anony

    I played with the contrast and exposure before posting.

    I think I'm learning that with B&W I need to underexpose and play with the contrast.
