Canary Wharf

    Taken just before being moved along by security! Tripods are "too professional", apparently.

      Excellent shot.

      I'd heard that security are bothered by tropods, but I didn't get told to move on. Strange. Maybe it's an SLR thing?

      Don't like the place, do like the photo.

      Why wasn't the security happy?

      I think they wanted to make sure we weren't taking unauthorised publicity shots.

      Thanks mate, I liked the "leaning back" perspective it gives it, though I have another shot I should post for comparison, where the lines are straight. I could see myself doing more night shots, they're fun to set up when you aren't being interrupted by guards all the time ;-)

      Wow. Very nice. I like how the lights flood the composition. =)

      The range of colours in the windows is really something.

      Great stuff, the wide angle distortion really pulls you into the pic.

      Jeez (to security). Great shot!

      I was there last night and was told that my slr was too professional as well

      I wasn't told to move on but I didn't have a tripod anyway so I could do this kind of shot

      nice reflection, and nice work keeping the two big white lights on the side form being over exposed.

      Is there a war against tripods or terrorism? I'm not really sure anymore. Certainly enough CCTV watching us all.
