London Backstreets ~ 1 by seanoneill

London Backstreets ~ 1

Just popping in after a long absence. May post a few more times in the next few weeks.

SInce I was last around on 365 I have opened a Micropub in Loughborough, Sam has started at reading Politics at Exeter University, Ben has started Sixth form and enjoyed a weeklong politics trip to the USA, my MCC Membership has come through and I have turned 50!

This shot was taken on a recent overnight workshop in London. Though I have invested in a new D750 and several lenses, my new business is all consuming, so I rarely get time to take any shots.

If any of my old friends see this shot, I hope you are well and send you my very best wishes.
What a capture of light in the dark, Sean! (waving to you from Fargo . . .)

@Taffy -- I think we need to add Sean's micropub in Loughborough on our UK trip!

@jyokota @taffy when are you coming over? You would be very welcome, but if you can't make my part of England, I would be delighted to come and see you somewhere more "photogenic".

Congratulations! Wonderful photo. @taffy @jyokota that would be a treat!

Lovely to hear from you Sean! Neat pic, certainly doesn't look like the London many of us may know.

Welcome back Sean!! This is a great night shot with such perfect starbursts!! Where in London is this? I like the sound of your micro pub - I must check out how far Loughborough is from Wellingborough. Fav!

SEAN! Great to see you here! I was away from 365 last year but have come back for 2016. I think it may be my last, but never say never eh. Sounds like all is good in your world, things are good with me and mine too.

It's so great to see you posting! I've really missed your shots and this one is, of course, spectacular! Hope all is well with you.
No immediate plans for a trip to England but not far-fetched sometime in the next year or so. It would be great to meet up!

Hello you! :)
Love all the bricks everywhere in this shot. Glad to hear all is well with you.

Hello!!! And fabulous to see your stunning work. Lack of time to do it doesn't appear to result in any less stunning shots. I am reading a book about London in 1916 at the moment. I can just see the characters in this image.

Lovely to see you return Sean & good to hear all your news! I thought this shot was of Coronation Street at first, must be the cobbles! Congratulations on your micro pub, it sounds an exciting new venture! Good luck with that.
