SHRIMPER 328 Posted March 25, 2012 Mrs Shrimper was there last week to see grandchildren and said she liked it. We visit about once a month as a rule so we have seen it alter over time. I like St Pancras next door also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted March 26, 2012 Thanks for these excellent shots of Confuzion dexteracy and balance, shrimper, and not a single policeman worried about it. Here they would have kittens and close the roads if they see someone chuffing along with a sofa on bicycle, nevermind running a rag and bone service on it.I see CE is still using my name in vain, old grumps does like to stir it up ....;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHRIMPER 328 Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Not really Heman. Forgot to take my Nikon 18x300 lens with me. These are not to clear and as I do not like to much jiggery pokery with my pics they will have to do. I would give my eyeteeth to have worked the steel on the Shard building. Highest in Europe. Top out next week. Â Â Â Guys at the top. Â Â The one I went to see and could not get near. [ Edited February 1, 2020 by SHRIMPER Corrupted files Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHRIMPER 328 Posted April 14, 2012 Anyone who loves street photography as I do (candid shots) should take a look at this guys work. ROBERT DOISNEAU. I use a 18x250 telephoto lens which means I can get shots that people (the subjects) do not realise I am taking and are less likely to pose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,713 Posted July 4, 2012 In London next week,any good exhibitions that you could recommend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SHRIMPER 328 Posted July 4, 2012 If its photography you are looking for there is a great exhibition on at the National Geographic Society and its free. Some great stuff on view.I was in London on Sunday last at the Cutty Sark again and never lose my facination for the ship. If you want to get a good view of the London Olympic area the new cablecar over the Thames is open and its only £3.50 each way. 300 ft up so great view.

Herman 9,713 Posted July 4, 2012 Yeah,photograhy[Y] Got a couple of art galleries planned but fancied other stuff.That''s a good tip by the way,sounds interesting and quite near the museums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marty 0 Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) Â I think they did a great job with St Pancras, it is always a pleasure to arrive in London at such a magnificant station. Also, the hotel is finally open as a hotel again (OK it has been for a few years), I''d forgotten what it looked like with all the scaffolding, what a great structure.

SHRIMPER 328 Posted July 21, 2012 Glad you enjoyed it. I am without my Nikon at the moment as it has developed a fault and gone back to the land of the rising sun.I will keep you informed if I hear of any more decent exhibitions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings of a Sparrow 1,409 Posted July 22, 2012 Apologies, I think this has been covered before.How do I get to put my own pictures in my posts? I am using Google Chrome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SHRIMPER 328 Posted July 22, 2012 I use PHOTOBUCKET to upload mine to. From there you copy the image tags and paste onto here. IMAGESHACK is another you can use,there are lots of them if you google. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SHRIMPER 328 Posted July 22, 2012 Should have explained. Forums do not hold any pictures themselves it just appears that way. They are all on whichever hosting site you chose and the site you have posted them on retrieves them from there. If after you have posted them into a forum you delete them from you host site they will disappear from here also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHRIMPER 328 Posted July 22, 2012 [IMG]http:i46.photobucket.com/albums.jpg[IMG]That is what you should be copying from bucket. I have left the image code out of that link but it should appear between albums and jpg. I have done it that way because I did not want a picture to appear.
