In yesterday’s blog post I featured a cityscape shot of London depicting the Thames, the South Bank, and – in the distance – various other famous buildings (St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Shard, the office towers in the City of London).
One thing that probably went mostly unnoticed is the staircase that I’m showing today. It’s in there if you look for it.
I took a couple of shots of this – the other has a lady halfway up the second flight – but, while that one is ok, I much prefer this. The positioning of the man, the contrast and sharpness that the good ‘ol OM-1 and Zuiko glass provides, plus a bonus pigeon(!) make this one work better, I think.
Olympus OM-1, Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 & Ilford HP5+.
