Walking In London and Playing With Pictures
As some of you know (I mean the alpha testers for steem.supply) I'm in London for a week with work. But since work only starts tomorrow, I did what I love most: walking for miles and miles and taking pictures. Some of them are edited (I couldn't resist) but many of them are raw, unfiltered. The London sky, as gloomy as it is most of time, has something magic in it.
Hunting down the egg
The hidden laguna
Blending with the clouds
Old Fenchurch station
Instant alley
Tower Bridge entry
City breathes
Chrome building (no filter)
Keep the road

Haha you found my favourite pic spot, is the first one :) Keep on playing 😍
That's really a nice place. There's also a Starbucks nearby, right at the foot at the bridge, where you can find a nice spot to work (wifi is free and decent).
Thanks @dragosrua for sharing these amazing london pics and enjoy your work holiday...
A bit oxymoronic this part of your sentence: "work holiday" but surprisingly accurate: I'm here for work but it feels like holiday, lol :)
London is an amazing blend of antique + new age constructions...nice clicks
Great post @dragosroua I came to Steemit to develop financial freedom allowing me to travel the world and shoot amazing pictures like you get to. Followed to stay up to date with your adventures, keep up the good content :)
Welcome to Steemit and good luck with your mission :)
The Instant alley looks so cool =D
Love the instant alley pic. It is new and old together. I love the details on the old building. The effort put by the builders realising the bridge. The narrowness of the alley is amplified by the tall, modern building behind
What an amazing journey and those photos are dope men !! Hope to visit London soon :)
Nice photos! If you have time and enjoy long walks then the trek (and it is a fair way!) along the Regent's canal is always interesting. You get to see a good cross section of London life, particularly if you hop on and off along the way.
Yep, I did that already, loved it. Went from Victoria Park to Camden Market, lots of runners, so felt like home :)
@dragosroua great blog. I came across you not when you were running, but when your photos appeared in the 'new' section. I'm a photographer and like you whenever I get a spare moment in a new city I'm out there photographing. I really do like your shot of the Chrome building. I'm glad you left the shot with no filter as it doesn't really need one. The composition you used is spot on! If you ever need any photography tips or camera help just hit me up - be happy to help. I've only been here on @steemit under two weeks and I'm loving the community. Thanks for sharing your shots of London and hopefully my girlfriend and I can make it to that neck of the woods soon!
Welcome to Steemit and thanks for the nice words, I don't consider myself more than a casual photographer, hitting that composition right has more to do with chance than with skill. Keep it up here, this thing is going to be a game changer.
You are not wrong there! I was hooked on the first day and this will be the start of the internet 3.0 to the masses. Keep on steeming!
I already witnessed for you while I was checking out steem supply. I like it. Lets you know when it is all coming in and it is pretty accurate too. lol
Yeah, being accurate it was like a big deal, you know. Kind of the whole reason of doing it in the first place :))
It is so simple to use, which is very important for someone who doesn't know jack about using computers. Just having to put your username in and then presto. You know what is coming for both comments and post. It tickled me pink. lol
