Big Ben at night


Big Ben at night 5, originally uploaded by Allen Hutchison.

Along with the photo of Westminster Abbey, I got a couple of nice night shots of Big Ben with traffic whizzing by in the foreground. I like this shot the best out of the group. I think it's because of the blue streak mid-way up.

One of the great things about shooting traffic at night in London is the double-decker buses. They put light up at a much higher level in the frame than the rest of the traffic does.

Moon over Westminster Abbey

Tonight was clear and cold, so I thought it would be best to get out and take some pictures of London at night. My favorite shot of the evening was this one of the moon rising over Westminster Abbey.
