Over There

GRD, f5.6, 1/500, ISO 400, JPG b&w
Being back in London and at work, I realized that I do miss travelling. It's just different to experience  and explore a new place, meet new people and just not know what you will end up doing for the rest of the day and certainly not tomorrow.
Being in an office can be difficult even if you have a nice job, nothing comes close to travelling and the feeling of being free to do what you want when you want it.

At least the weather was nice when I went for a quick walk around lunchtime to take some photos and get some air.

Dancing in Blue

GR, f2.8, 1/125, ISO 100, RAW
Been a rainy start to the morning and with the grey skies there wasn't that much blue around to take photos of. During a quick lunchtime walk, I walked through Spitalfields market and saw people dancing. This was a good opportunity to take some photos and I did get something blue in front of my lens.
The weather cleared up and after work I had plenty of opportunity to take photos of something blue.

Blue Ice Cream

I happened to come by this guy during my usual lunchtime walk. I wasn't quite in the right place to get the shot but do like it.

Walk the Dog

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 100, RAW
Another great and sunny day in London so I made the most out of it during my lunch break and headed to Brick Lane and a park there to enjoy the sunshine away from all the City people but in between all the hipsters and vintage fans.

Shopping

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 3200, RAW
Not been hugely inspired today. Despite going for a walk during lunch and after work, I didn't really see much to take photos of. Maybe I need to take a break from my daily photography.

Cycle Surgery

The morning started off dull and grey so there was not much of anything to see of the eclipse but it did brighten up for lunch and it turned into a very nice day. While I didn't have much time for photography, I liked the tiny bike that guy was riding.

Taking Stock

GR, f2.8, 1/125, ISO 400, RAW

Another mostly dull and grey day but it was the "krims krams" day at Spitalfields market so always nice for a stroll to see what kind of junk people sell and buy. Some of it is nice enough but a lot of the stuff is more junk or clutter but I guess it's right up the alley for some hipsters and fits in the whole retro style for some people.

This photo actually works a bit better in 3:2 format and colour but it does work quite well even with the theme for the week. You can see the colour version on Flickr.

Traffic People

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 1600, RAW

It's been a busy day but I managed to get out during lunch for a brief walk and take some photos. I also have a theme for this week to keep me a bit more motivated, I'll shoot everything (or convert later) in black and white and square format.

Vintage Fashion

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 1600, RAW

It's been a great day with a lot of sunshine again so I made the most out of my lunch break and went for a walk but more to enjoy the sun than to take photos. I did take some photos at Spitalfields market but as with the recent days I wasn't hugely inspired. It's all a bit of the same so despite the nice weather it is difficult to keep myself motivated.

Impressed

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 1600, RAW

It's been a nice and sunny day so I made the most out of my lunch break again by going out for a walk. I went around Spitalfields market and Brick Lane to enjoy the sunshine and also take some photos.

Market Shopping

GR, f2.8, 1/125, ISO 250, RAW

Been raining during my lunch break but since Spitalfields Market is covered I could go there for a walk and to take some photos. Didn't get many good photos since I wasn't that inspired with the rain and grey weather.

PRET

Another one of my lunchtime photos, I liked the light in this one with the sunshine, reflection but grey clouds in the background.

Out for a Stroll

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 100, RAW

Another great and sunny day but one where I didn't get much time to walk around or take photos. Still, I had to go out even for a short walk around and enjoy the sunshine and from the looks I wasn't the only one.

Running with Pancakes

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 1600, RAW

Fitting for the International Pancake Day, I came across the pancake race near Brick Lane during my lunchtime walk so I had to take a few photos. The weather was great and people were having a good time.

Skybound

GRD I, f2.4, 1/80, ISO 400, JPG b&w

Another grey day without much photography done. It's not easy to keep being inspired every day when you are always in the same area but it's important to keep the blog up.

Square

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 3200, RAW

My usual lunchtime walks around Spitalfields Market are always especially interesting on Thursdays when you can buy a lot of junk, clutter, retro memorabilia or hipster treasures (depending on your viewpoint). It's fun to walk around and look at both the wares and the people though so well worth going on Thursday.

Man in a Box

GR, f6.3, 1/320, ISO 20000, RAW

I took a few more photos today. I started on my way to work since I had some time and the sun was shining but I've done quite a lot of photography during my lunch break walking around Spitalfields market.
