Docklands, East London, United Kingdom. Taken June 2010

I really like this version, remnds me of a 1930s NY skyline shot.

I remember heading down into London just after a party at friend's house. I drove down to the other side of Docklands trying to get a sunset shot, missed it by about 20 mins after I got stuck in a 2 mile one way system! LOL! Headed around to the other side of the Docklands, the Blackwall side, creeping around in the shadows around "chucking out" time ( the time when the pubs close and everyone has to go home ) just waiting for someone to call the coppers and having to explain what I was up to! It was such a calm, walm Summer night. The one smell I love is a city centre on warm Summer night, something quite beautiful about the aroma of heat escaping the city as it starts to settle down for the night...

This is a genuine reflection, the water really was that still and perfect, basically because there are buildings all around and it takes a quite a breeze to shake the surface.

I was so proud that this got a DD, it was only a mess about edit for one of my shots. The DD was gained on date 10-10-(20)10, which makes it even more special to me!

Thank you very much indeed! One of the few places in a "flat" city like London that you get to shoot tall buildings and reflections.

interesting...i've not been there in 20 years.
The films "Naked" and "Eastern Promises" both offer interesting photographic takes on modern london.
