Mirror Docks

Posted 16/07/2011 - 12:50 Link
I was walking home from the cinema late on Thursday evening and realised that the docks by my house had never been so still in the 8 months I have lived here. Usually a combination of the tide and wind make things quite choppy. I wish I could of stayed out for longer and next time I will go up the bridge to take more photos but it was 12.30am. Please let me know your thoughts.

What a dandy place to live.
The B&W seems to work quite well.
Thanks for sharing .

You post these at a bigger size to do them more justice. I love the B&W version!

Very still indeed!I prefer the colour shots and particularly number 1.

I cycle the canals near where I live all the time and they are never this still mores the pity.

Where is it anyway?

Thanks for the comments


These are taken at Royal Victoria Docks in East London, just next to London City Airport. I find it a very underrated part of the city which has done nothing but impress any visitors I have had.

Large pics by request. Is the exposure of on them? I look via my iPhone and they looked a little dark so not sure to trust my laptop of iPhone.....

Very difficult with night time photos. I think they are actually better taken at twilight. A hint of dark blue, as opposed to black in the sky would enhance these IMO.
