Tower Bridge
Posted by kim on July 16th, 2010
Just a couple of photos from last Saturday when we were in London. Our hotel was a couple of minutes walk from Tower bridge & the Tower of London, I really suck at outdoor super sunny photography, really need to figure out how to do that.. hum.
These were the last photos from that day as we headed out towards our show after checking in at the hotel, but I will be writing a little about the meal we had that evening at Wahaca (amazingly nice, cheap & relaxed Mexican food).
The exposure looks a little off here. Do you use centre-weighted metering, or spot metering? If you’re spot metering, it’s probably best to meter off the sky (since it’s usually pretty bright) and then you can recover the shadows in Photoshop or whatever.
These are also lacking a little in contrast, but that can be adjusted post-shooting. You can’t beat a good polariser when you’re taking a picture with blue skies, though… brings down the brightness of the sky and boosts contrast. Very nice.
I love that gherkin building… I have to go visit it some day.
