| So this is the national portrait gallery |
I went on a photography trip to London's National portrait gallery and the Tate Mordern. It was quite a fun trip walking around and sitting in Trafalgar square and not seeing the massive pillar with Nelson on it....
The coach journey was alright, a couple of hours to the capital, but there were a few annoying girls at the back. Y'know the childish loud ones that sing and talk unnecessarily loud. My classmates said they wanted to kill, them and unfortunately they didn't (only kidding i would never wish anyone dead, just for them to shut their traps.) I found it quite enjoyable to be a tourist for the day, it's all very exciting! With my college friends we were very amused by pigeons, because pigeons can be a great laugh. A lot of us very nearly got run over by angry taxi drivers bad men grrrr. Whilst walking to the Tate we went past St.Pauls cathedral which really doesn't look like it's supposed to be there....and there were a load of tents about Capitalism and it was quite eerie because the tents were empty, almost like they had died. Here are some photies i took around the capital. Enjoy!

Glad you enjoyed the trip -- great perks go with a photography course! I really like your photos - especially the one of the Millenium Bridge - very striking!
ReplyDeleteI know i had never been to a gallery before so was interesting, and it was on portraiture so there was a lot of *cough* interesting ones...including nudity so i skipped those ones! Thank you i took many more but put some main ones up, if i feel like it later i'll pop them on here.
ReplyDeleteInteresting trip, you have got a nice perspective on the St Pauls view. When my family lived in London, St Pauls was one of the most prominent features on the London skyline and during my lifetime, the skyline of the City has changed and changed again. Even a few years ago, when I worked just within the M25, Canary Wharf was the most prominent feature and stood out alone but now is just one of several buildings of a similar height.
