Picadilly Circus, London at Night
On a recent trip to London for business, I was busy working by day, but had some time in the evening. My co-worker was familiar with the city and acted as my guide. When we came upon Picadilly Circus, I was struck by the vibrance, the noise, the young people but mostly by the colors. The 2-story high neon signs were casting a glow onto the nearby buildings and the passing double-decker buses. I propped the camera on a signpost and waited for the light to change letting a bus go by. I repeated this a few times before I finally got one I liked.
