Wizzing Waltzer

Had trouble choosing which photo to upload tonight - I really liked a few I'd taken at the German Funfair in Hyde Park, both this one that I finally settled on or one of the photos I'd taken of the ferris wheel.

This was a short "long-exposure" taken hand held as I tried to capture some of the movement in the spinning cars. Here's the others if you fancy having a look http://andycphotos.shutterfly.com/772

Was a lazy day in work - I got in late as I'd worked late the night before and as soon as it was lunch, we were off for our quarterly lunch and managers meeting. So it was off to Nando's for a couple of hours, then a quick meeting and out by 4pm.

So with a bit of time on my hands, I headed up to the West End. Spotted a few student protesters on their way to Parliament to protest at today's student loan hike vote, but no action..
Haha love the snowman! Great action shot
