John (Floyd), Pete (Ganders), Matt, (Mbardeen), Galina, Jamie (Jaam) and I had a great day today on our first London GTG!
Hopefully most of us will have some pictures to upload and share with anyone interested very soon.
We took a trip on the London Eye, went for lunch in China Town, wandered from there to Covent Garden and on to Trafalgar Square and spent some time enjoying photographs at the National Portrait Gallery, including the new-ish Lichfield display and the Seydou Keita/ Malick Sidibe exhibition I enjoyed a few months back. From there we walked back up to Leicester Square area for tea/coffee scones before hopping on the tube to London Bridge and walking (and photographing) the walk towards Waterloo. A short way past the Golden Hinde (boat) we were waylaid by a pub!
All absolutely exhausted now but looking forward to another GTG sometime soon!
Well done. I like the Jubilee line shot best - plan to retun there when I can. I have uploaded pictures on my computer this morning, had a look... I really miss my Sony 717, because the image quality of Olympus 720 is so much worse.

I look at your website and it's very well done ... just sometimes would llike your pictures a little larger.
I love you Pyramide du Louvre in your infrared project (not becasue I 'm french). I love how the oblique lines define the content of the pictures and I like the dreamy look i has (did you add some blur effect ? I could not see well). Félicitations particulières pour cette photo là !!!

I've just posted this elsewhere too - doh! I didnt know there was a new thread for this. Anyway, I've just uploaded my shots from the day to my portfolio here on DPC. You can view it here.

Thanks. I am planning to redesign the gallery part of the site. At the moment it aims at 800x600 resolution, so the photo sizes are 350 or 400 pixels to ensure that the user does not have to scroll down and the navigation at the bottom is still visible.
About the London GTG Take No 2 - Let's do it again?
That's really exciting to hear that it all worked out. I hope you guys had a great time, and I'm glad the website could play some part in bringing you together. Be sure to share those pictures! :)
Galina did you upload any of your pics to your site yet?
I just finished processing a whole lot of mine but can't decide for most shots whether I prefer them in BW or colour. So I don't want to post any links until I narrow the number of images down. I have about 40+ images I've played with but pretty much each one is saved both in colour and BW so I really need to weed most of them out before sharing!
