A photo of the Victorian Leadenhall Market in the City of London, shot back in November during an Advanced Photographer Magazine / Samsung event. Note the Christmas trees.......
From Wikipedia : "Between 1990 and 1991 the market received a dramatic redecoration which transformed its appearance, enhancing its architectural character and detail. The redecoration scheme received a special mention in the Civic Trust Awards in 1994. The market is a Grade II* listed building, being listed in 1972.
It was used to represent the area of London near The Leaky Cauldron and Diagon Alley in the film Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and is featured in the films The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Hereafter, Brannigan, and Love Aaj Kal."

The Shard at dusk.
The roof terrace of One New Change in the City of London was the finish point of the Advanced Photographer / 'Samsung Shoots : Urban' event I took part in recently. The Samsung NX1 camera I had been lent for the day coped admirably with the low light conditions, I'm definitely impressed with the series of dusk shots I took.
The best of the photos taken by the eight photographers who took part in the event will be published in Advanced Photographer Magazine next month.

I've photographed Jean Nouvels One New Change many times before but it's nearly always been the now famous view of St. Pauls (see image below). This time around I took a few others including this detail of a light on the exterior facade. I thought the colours were particularly nice as the sun was starting to set.

I'd photographed this colourful mural by Bicicleta Sem Freio just off Brick Lane a few months back, it was good to see it still intact. This time I photographed it at an oblique angle to compress the image slightly.

This section of the London skyline as shot from the roof of One New Change at dusk looks unrecognisable as London to me as there are no recognisable landmarks. I like the contrasting architectural styles and the mixed lighting as captured by the Samsung NX1 I'd borrowed for the day so I've decided to upload it afterall.
An article about the day the eight of us spent testing out the NX1 will be appearing in the next issue of the Advanced Photographer Magazine due out in a few weeks. In the meantime you can see my photos from the event here : www.flickr.com/photos/darrellg/sets/72157649716198171
