London Fog

posted October 22, 2012 by Holly Hayes part of trip: The Great European Road Trip

It was foggy and misty all day today, which I knew would mean a great opportunity for some atmospheric night photos. So even though I was already tired from walking around all day, I went back to my hotel, grabbed my tripod, then crammed back in with the commuters on the Tube so I could spend some quality time with Big Ben and the London Eye. I'm really glad I did - it was absolutely magical. The pictures can't totally capture the atmosphere, but I tried my best.

I walked back to my hotel along the south bank of the river, during which I saw more pretty sights.
