On This Day

lights

December 2005, tree lights on the South Bank, avoiding the obligatory skateboarder photos, or the moody uplit St Pauls across the river, these were made with an FM2 and 50mm f/2 (f/2 at about 1/60) and have been described as the worst photography ever seen. Some people like them though, including the cynical but wise Londoner who named them. It’s a useful thing to try, this deliberate defocus, especially if your hands are cold or its too windy to guage stability. Not as easy as you might think to get a pleasing result.
