Today was the very definition of a challenging day for photography. Even ignoring work :)

1) It was absolutely, unrelentingly, pissing it down. Very soggy indeed!
2) It was also cold and windy. Or rather... VERY WINDY!
3) My 10-22mm lens has developed a fault and can only focus at 22mm, meaning I'm locked into a SINGLE focal length for the entire shoot.

Not to mention the site is a good 35 minute walk from the nearest Tube station to get to/from. In an area of London I've never been before.

This is intended to be the first in a series of shots of the modern London skyline. It dawned on me I have these wonderful scenes which all to often are frequently ruined by the weather. However, I like this blue-steel look so I'm embarking on a project to catalogue the best of London views, images and skylines with this as an underlying theme.

Definitely interested to hear what people think!
