River Seine from the Eiffel Tower

The last photograph of Paris for a while but how could I publish a set of images from such a famous city without showing you a picture taken from the top of the Eiffel Tower. It is very interesting to me how the light worked, the clouds were really low and dark but for some reason the buildings have sunlight on them, I only wish this picture had been captured on digital RAW format as I would have been able to perfectly expose and correct the light in all the buildings. Still I find it an interesting photograph of the city.

View from the Empire State Building – New York

Got up early to clear sunny skies, so I walked down with Mike to the Lincoln centre on the west side. Then back around the block and into central park, it was a nice little walk and I got a few pictures. We then met up with the whole group and walked through central park to the Guggenhein Museum. This was under re-development so looked very ugly from the outside but the inside was still open, it was better then last time but still a little disappointing. So I walked back into central park to get some photos over the reservoir. The whole group then walked down 5th ave to the Empire State Building (about 3 miles away). Due to the weather being so clear we could see for miles from the 86th floor. Again I took loads of photos.

View from Manchester Wheel

This afternoon I wanted to get a few photographs of Manchester and thought it would be a perfect time to go for a trip on the Manchester Wheel. Typically it was raining so 99% of the photographs I took had spots of rain from the glass. This was the best image I could rescue. It was nice to see the new section of the Arndale Shopping Centre now open. Despite the rain my trip on the wheel was still good fun, I will definitely be going on it again when the weather is a little better. If your interested, your get to go around three times for one trip.

Aerial view of Venice’s Lido

I had obviously read and seen a lot of information about Venice before I went but it wasn’t until flying home that I saw this, the Lido. It is an 11 mile long sandbar which is where a lot of Venetians go for their summer holidays, or at least that was traditionally where they went. Aerial photography has always been something of interest too me even though I rarely get the opportunity to take pictures from a plane.
