Yesterday I went on a brief photowalk with James, John and Steve around the Victoria area which saw us working our way in towards Trafalgar Square. Passing by St James’s Park we thought that the frozen over water may make for a decent reflection of the Millennium Wheel from a bridge, however it did absolutely nothing but remove the reflection, which was a shame, so I headed down to the water’s edge instead and framed up so that the wheel was visible through this tree and reflected in one of the few watery parts not fully frozen over.
In some ways I think it would have been nicer without the background lights and noise, but finding a clear sky behind a tree in London can be pretty difficult so that wasn’t to be in this instance.
I was looking forward to seeing the result of this image. Fantastic image
I think the tree reflection sets this image off nicely. The wheel by itself would not be near as impressive in my book! Good stuff Mike!
Awesome! That reflection brings a really cool element to this image. I love the strong contrast between the wheel and the rest of the image.
Great shot Mike, love the view through the tree and the broken reflections in the water
