London love

Just incase you were wondering, the visa never came through. I finally got that call late Thursday and just like that I was presented with a free weekend. What a rare occasion. Initially I had grand plans of escaping but to be honest after everything I also need a little  R & R. I was chatting with a friend from Australia who used to live with me and our conversation got me thinking about all the places we used to go. I wanted a little London adventure to myself. 

It was a grey but warm day and I thought I would go to Somerset House. I have to say this really is turning into one of my favourite places. It had two wonderful photography exhibits which were inspiring and also strangely emotional. To be moved by a picture is an incredible skill and one I hope to accomplish.

I had also brought my camera and my new 28mm lens. After admiring other peoples work it was time to capture some of my own images. I normally prefer to shoot more intimate pictures but gave myself a little challenge to try and create some interesting shots with this wide lens. Here are a few of images I took. 

I know where I will be spending some of my free summer days.
