London Photography Tour Austria
A unique guided trip to London to capture the city’s iconic buildings, skylines and people. We’ll focus on classic London scenes ranging from red buses and black cabs to the changing of the King’s Guard at Buckingham Palace.
Location
Where do we go?
During this photography trip, we will focus on capturing the essence of London’s skyline and famous buildings. St Paul’s Cathedral, built in 1675 by Christopher Wren, dominates the city skyline. Surrounded by magnificent new buildings such as the Shard, the Gherkin and the London Eye, the skyline offers a fabulous contrast of styles. We will capture dawn at Big Ben and dusk at Tower Bridge. We’ll spend time on long exposures to capture the River Thames, juxtaposed with the beautiful architecture. Along the way, we will photograph famous icons of London—red buses, black taxis, telephone boxes. We will stay in the centre on the South Bank, near Borough Market and the Millennium Bridge.
