This long exposure is a view looking over Nelson Dock Pier London where the ferry runs to Canary Wharf. It is a 30 second exposure, F8, 85mm. I liked the thought of so many different people behind each of the windows.
Please give it a try on black.
Piccadilly is a thoroughfare in London that has been in existence since the early 1600’s. Named after piccadills (a fancy type of neck collar), the road meets with Regent Street in a junction that was designed by John Nash in 1819.
The Circus (from the Latin word meaning "circle"), was expanded to connect to Shaftesbury Avenue in 1886, transforming it into one of the largest and most important road junctions in London.
In 1879, Charles Dickens described Piccadilly Circus as follows: “Piccadilly, the great thoroughfare leading from the Haymarket and Regent Street westward to Hyde Park Corner, is the nearest approach to the Parisian boulevard of which London can boast.”
