London - riverside cafe
Posted by Michael Fresh (Chester, United Kingdom) on 15 October 2010 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.
Pictures of London with a difference. I purposely avoided taking shots of the well known tourist sights.
A shady little resting place.
My book entitled, Looe in Cornwall a photographic tour, is on sale now.

An interesting journey for me, it reminds me of good times and what I enjoyed when I worked in London. When I see photos of busy tourist spots it reminds me of why I left! Love the composition of this scene

That's beautifully framed Mike. But despite your self imposed brief I notice a familiar site creeping in to the background:)

@grouser: Do you mean the old clock...? I know, but it's at a distance so that's not too bad ;-)
JJ from Jersey City, United States
Just to counter Grousers comment, I didnt notice the old clock so much, what a nice shot of this spot, I remember paying attention to and getting some shots of the fish style lampposts

I love walking on the waterfronts as weel, another unique way to see the city. A different point of view. You can almost believe you're on holidays.

@Florence: Yeah... and it didn't cost you a penny :)
Rosso from Luserna s.Giovanni (To), Italy
Nice shot! I would love to be in that place to drink a coffee and admire the landscape of London.

@Rosso: I'm sure you would enjoy sitting here...... expresso or coffee Americana ?

I like this "street" type shot. Interesting details like the phone booth make the shot work so well.

@Don: Thanks Don, it's always great to hear that viewers enjoy a certain scene.

This looks to be the perfect spot for a break. Such a nice view and a Tardis in case you need to time travel.
