In a hurry

I had a trip down to London today with my business partner.

We had a very pleasurable afternoon at the Royal Opera House tasting the 2010 Bordeaux wine vintage from about 100 different chateaux at the Union des Grands Crus annual tasting. Some real stand our wines that in time will be worthy of their stellar price tags! After 3 and a half hours tasting wine boy did I need a drink!!

A very enjoyable tapas meal at The Opera Tavern followed, and then home by train arriving home at about 9-30pm.

Here is a shot of folk rushing about St. Pancras just after we arrived at midday. I didn't get the crispness I wanted (no tripod), but am reasonably happy with the outcome and how it looks enlarged.

[Janelle]

I like this Sean. Nice amount of motion blur which is nicely offset by the people on the bench in the middle. Great large.

[Paul Godfrey]

It works well for me. See Charlie Waite, Travelling Light, St Pancras features in the DVD.

[Danny G.]

Nice shot, Sean - sounds like you had a good day!

[Andrew Sutherland]

Sounds like a great way to spend an afternoon on a business trip!

[Rosie White-Hlouveraki]

Love your pov and the movement and hustle bustle of people ...fav!

[Fanny Brogden]

Love your shot and love the sound of all that hard work you had to do!!

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Great shot Sean, brilliant selective focussing and pov.

[Ann Stenson]

What wonderful sense of movement Sean!.....Love this! : )

[Bobbyj]

fantastic b&w, great POV and motion capture!

[Cathy Breen]

Love this b&w, it looks better enlarged. Wow, you have a tough job. (I guess someone has to do it!)

[Cassandra Hoffmann]

What an awesome shot, Sean! Fav :)

[Martha]

Loving the movement in this!

[Phil]

This looks great. I think you did well to survive the thirsty work... but how would the shot have looked after the wine tasting, I wonder...!!

[Pat Knowles]

Love the non crispness of it & would love to emulate this some time! Sounds a hard afternoon....did you spit?

[Mick]

All the lines and the movement are really good Sean.
Don't suppose you'd consider taking on a middle-aged apprentice? :)

[jerry plume]

Love the movement! fantastic B&W!

[AutomaticSlim]

Just the right amount of motion blur, nicely composed too.

[Caryn]

I think this is awesome for handheld! Well done!

[fife]

Looks great to me!

[Hubregt Visser]

That's a great shot. I've always wanted to do such a shot. Wonderful that you were able to without a tripod.

[Andreas]

Awesome Sean, love the composition. The blurry busy edges against the quiet middle part. Fav

[Juliette Packham]

really like this - Sean, great symmetry - works well in B&W

[Jeff Walker]

oh wow... this is eye candy! FAV
